You might try replacing the program call (from gnome) with a call to a script that starts the program with strace to a log. I rather doubt this will give you what you want, but it seems worth a try on something this difficult. I presume you've looked at ~/.xsession-errors and syslog ? A hardware fault seems worth suspecting. If that hardware fault is related to memory, you might learn something by running memtest86. > Last observation, these 8-10 year olds seem much more savvy than > their relatively young parents. ;-) -- Jeff Jeff Abrahamson <http://jeff.purple.com/> phone: +33 06 21.83.26.20 (From U.S.: 011-33-6-2183-2620) GPG fingerprint: 1A1A BA95 D082 A558 A276 63C6 16BF 8C4C 0D1D AE4B Attachment:
