i dont have any clue... but after this the PC returned to crunch WU totaly normal... and there is nothing running instead of boinc, no x-server or anything... but ok, if this doesnt repeat too often thats no problem and i think noone can say what it is so... thanks anyway :)
@MW: I got something similar. Just out of the blue. Everything else is fine all around. I'm not using any dodgy science app or anything like that either. I'm running Linux too, if that helps.

I think we have to find out why the application was struck by 'signal 11'...
the following messages seem to be trace / debugging info from the app.
Signal 11, or officially known as "segmentation fault", means that the program accessed a memory location that was not assigned.
The link describes a problem in compiling the linux kernel itself but I think there are some useful hints...
The list of causes includes:
- CPU temperature
- Overclocking
[Edit: added link to Sig11 which I found later on...]
hm, thanks for that information.
But i don't think its a heat problem... it's an athlon xp 2200+, arctic cooler, not overclocked and never made any problems. The Linux / Kernel is direclty installed from DVD (SuSE Linux 10.1). But i'll look if this happens again.
Well, I suppose that probably does explain mine. It's been awfully hot in London, and I don't suppose my cooling system is anything special.
Thanks Udo

Hello Peter
If you are in the UK, try the Zalman coolers - I just read the topmost post so am not sure if you are running a laptop or not - but Zalman make quiet and effective fans: mine rarely runs over 1800 rmp, compared to the standard 2500 rpm of the orig stock fan - just a thought
I really think the stock app is allready optimized for Linux.
I complained about too high values for my WUs, as I claimed and got 4 times the amount as on other projects. And I usually expect my AMD Linux to be at the lower end of claims.
But after I've been pointed to my fellow crunchers on my WUs, I realized that I was plain fast. I crunched the WU in half the time of a usually better Intel/Win machine. (Linux, AMD2200+, 0,5GB compared to Win, P4, 1GB)
So as far as I'm concerned, there's no need for an estra optimised Linux. A big THANKS! to the devs.

And now guess on what OS the "Top Participant" of this project lets "his" clients run.
In Germany we have the suited proverb "Ein Schelm wer böses dabei denkt" which translates freely into - or rather was translated from - "Honi soit qui mal y pense" or "Evil to him who evil thinks" from King Edward the Third. ;)

Motto of the order of the Garter (in its French form). From the French, I prefer the translation to English of "Shame on him who thinks ill of it" though it appears that "shame upon him who thinks evil of it" is the more conventional English form. To my modern ear, "evil" in English greatly overburdens the contextual meaning for the original.

Not all of them, I've seen Darwin and XP twice, only 642 Linux ;)
