I upgraded a 1.1.5.1R machine here over the weekend to 2.1.0-R (486/40, 8MB, IDE ,XF86/312/S3,20 MB root/27MB swap) and I put xdm into rc.local to start X automatically. This was on saturday noon. When I wanted to telnet/ftp into the machine 24 hours later I got connection (ping also worked) but the system was nearly unusable, that is, telnet and ftp never got to the login prompt. I tried to login at the local console to no avail. It seemed the machine was heavily paging out during my attempts to login. I did a hard reset after a couple of minutes. I suspect there being some memory leak either with X alone or when being running via xdm. Is that a known problem? --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@gil.physik.rwth-aachen.de
