Hi, I've been running `setiathome' on FreeBSD 3.2R, having it generate output to the console for several months (it's nice to *see* the machine actually do something), and I've noticed that on some rare occasions (ie: twice in 3 months), that the console hangs. The first time it happened, I'd thought that the machine had hung, but on the 2nd time, I noticed that it'd still accepted keyboard input. Everything else appears to work fine, and the only data-point I have is that I'm generating heaps of output continously to the console for an extended period of time. Nothing else of significance was running on the machine: std daemons, xdm (not the active screen though), ppp. Has anyone else seen this problem?
