Just to note I am not having a problem at the moment, but have had previously so it sparked my curiosity...
When a computer locks up suddenly to so caps lock flashes incessantly and the only possibility to restart....how do you troubleshoot what is causing it? On Windows there would be some errors in the event log...on Linux it seems there is no opportunity for anything to be written to the log, making it hard to troubleshoot...
In this case, how would you troubleshoot the problem through linux?
