Has anyone else had a problem where the GUI freezes completely?
I'm not 100% sure that it is caused by Xcode but it always seems to happen
when I'm using Xcode. The problem has been happening on and off since I
upgraded to a Dual Processor 1.8GHz G5 (10.3.3). It has also spanned Xcode
1.1.1 and 1.2.
Sometimes days can go by between freezes but I think I'm averaging two
freezes per week. The freeze always seems to happen on a window switch of
some kind. For a while, I thought it was triggered by being in Xcode and
clicking on a window belonging to another app but today's example was
clicking on Xcode's "find" window from a main Xcode project window.
The freeze only seems to affect the GUI. I can go to another machine and
ssh to the "frozen" machine. I can run commands including "shutdown -r now".
I have tried killing processes associated with the logged-in user but that
doesn't seem to cure anything. I have also tried setting up for two-machine
debugging but the machine doesn't trip into debug mode unless I hit the
power button on the LCD screen (and then debugging from the second machine
doesn't reveal anything obvious).
There are no messages in any log that appear in any way related. Typically,
the last message will be minutes or hours before the freeze and the next
message will be when I login from the second machine via ssh.
Is anyone else seeing anything like this? It's really weird.
Regards, Phill
