Hi!
My box can run the SL client for hours.
But sometimes it crashes (most times it repeats the sound again and again, that was heard in the last fraction of a second; sometimes the screen is black; each time i cannot use keyboard or mouse -- just the RESET button at my box helps).
I think, this happens, when the disk load is higher than usual, or when my TV cards r active.
I use a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 460 graphics card with the latest (but legacy) NIVIDIA driver (96.43.01) and debian LINUX etch with a custom kernel and an ECS K7VMM+ main board and 768MB main memory.
Another OpenGL application (Nexuiz) runs fine even though the disk load is high...
I used this command:
export LL_GL_BLACKLIST=abcdefghijklmno
and it just crashed again.
What else can I try?
Bye
Arne

the last automatic update of debian etch (especially xorg related updates) obviously fixed that problem... -Arne

Ugh. Not only a 4-series, but a 4-series MX which is way low on power. Hon, it's time to upgrade if you can.
