  Hi,

It happens quite often that X crashes for unknown reasons but this time 
there it's left us a note, this BUG:

- Is there any particular meaning for "last sysfs file" shown? I mean, could there
  be some link between the crash and "last sysfs file"?

- X crashing happens actually a lot on this specific notebook. If it's not X crashing, 
  then unmotivated kde log-offs or frequent firefox crashes contribute their share.
  It's most probably not faulty RAM, it's new, it's been tested thoroughly.


Thanks for some answers,

  Nils
