Speaking of X problems, my X server tends to hang often. I can
reliably trigger this by trying to resize the NetScape usenet news
window. I've also seen it when running emacs on a remote system via
an rlogin in an xterm window.
When this happens, I have to rlogin to the system from elsewhere and
run /sbin/reboot to recover control of it from the console.
Also, "top" shows "X" sucking up all available CPU time. Anyone else
seen this problem? Is it easy to switch back to the standard X
distribution?
