you click submit on his web page, and X grinds to a halt. you can work fine from a VT, but X is completely unusable and stays that way across Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. going to single user mode and back will fix it. also, you get stuff like this in /var/log/messages: May 28 20:36:09 hp0 /kernel: no memory for rx list -- packet dropped! May 28 20:36:09 hp0 /kernel: xl0: no memory for rx list -- packet dropped! May 28 20:36:09 hp0 last message repeated 710 times May 28 20:38:09 hp0 last message repeated 13 times Fix: avoid submitting that form at all costs. How-To-Repeat: 1. go here http://www.rexswain.com/httpview.html 2. use yahoo for the form input http://www.yahoo.com 3. click submit. 4. if nothing terrible happens, reload (repost form data).
