AArrgh. Just pushed the reset button after StarOffice 5.1 freezed
up. No CTRL-ALT-Fn anymore, no telnet possible from another machine,
a ping showed 100 % packet loss and 'host is down'. It happened 
earlier several months ago and then the first thing I did after reboot
was to remove the naughty thing. But recently I installed it again
and now it bombs again... And all I did was trying to exit StarOffice.
Nothing special in /var/log/messages, except / was not properly
dismounted. Well that's normal after a hard reset.

First thing I have to try is to reproduce, but now I don't have 
time for that...

Karel.
