I have seen few things in Linux world but this is very new for me! I have this fantastic browser called Chromium (12.0.742.68) and I really like it. But, sometimes, when I see flash videos on different sites (youtube, cnn, bbc) the whole chromium become frozen and basicly impossible to kill it. (The comfortable way is left click on the taskbar and choose "Close" and KDE takes care of to kill the application. ) I'm aware of I'm using Linux and the Linux desktop and the flash are not the best friends ever. So my usual activity if my browser become frozen by flash is the next: (1), start a konsole, (2), start htop, (3) and kill the process, (4) restart the browser, (5) happy. But, in this case, htop doesn't start. I can see the prompt and the command "htop" but the cursor is disappeared and nothing. Just waiting for something. The konsole doesn't react CTRL-c. I've tried this in xterm terminal and the result was the same. In normal case I examine the htop process by strace but I can't figure out what is the PID number because of ps aux (see below). Usually I'm using strace from htop. I thought "ok, no problem, I'm well experienced linux user and I know there always is another way to kill a process". So, I typed "ps aux | grep chrom" command and the result was the same as htop. I could see the prompt and my command and nothing. The cursor is disappeared and nothing. We waited for something. Here I thought that the X server could be the root cause. I pushed CTRL-DEL-F1 and I thought that "here is my little console and I'm able to do everything". But the result was the same when I wanted to start htop. Here was the point when I became angry and restarted my machine. The restarting process stopped at "Terminating processes" and my machine didn't restart just wait for something for minutes! I had to push reset button after 5 minutes. Strange, isn't? Has anybody any thought, idea what the hell happen? While I wrote this letter Chromium become crazy again - thanks the automatic save few words has lost this letter - and I know that the root cause the Chromium itself and the flash isn't matter. Flash just make faster that process when Chromium become crazy. My plan is the next: - rebuild my whole system because it's necessary. This is a very fresh install and gcc has changed. - step back to earlier version of chromium - try to reproduce this error with another browser - pray to God :) - switch off the computer and read The Wheel of Time series from Robert Jordan :) --=20 - - --=C2=A0 Csanyi Andras (Sayusi Ando)=C2=A0 -- http://sayusi.hu -- http://facebook.com/andras.csanyi --=C2=A0 ""Trust in God and keep your gunpowder dry!" - Cromwell
