[PD-dev] pdp, 3dp crashing problems

[Guenter Geiger]

Hi,

I had problems with the realtime patched kernel, so the first thing
that I would try is to install a standard, non-realtime kernel and
check if the problems go away.

Then,  3dp uses OpenGL which might give you problems. I am not using
xorg yet, but did you have xorg in your last installation too ?
Changed the graphics card,  driver ?

well, just some guesses.
