The X server crashed on w20-575-71. When I tried to halt it with the
button in the back, it did not automatically boot. I typed "boot" and
it hung for a long time. I power-cycled the machine, and it stopped
with a
>>
prompt. I typed "boot" and it came up.
This particular machine has had several problems in the past. The X
server frequently crashes, and it does not often come up cleanly.
Someone should probably run diagnostics on it.
