Description (last modified by )
- Startup computer
- System update via Synaptic
- (no synaptic updates, no other programs active)
- Launch JOSM
- (Normal wait at beginning)
- Screen goes blank white
- only option is to switch off/restart computer
This first happened whilst working in JOSM. I had selected a node, then screen went blood-red (same colour as the selected node). On next going into JOSM it first reported corrupt config (or some such) and that it would create a default config (+ preferences.xml_backup iirc; it is a zero-byte file). Then delay, then screen went white & so on.
wtf??
I have zero knowledge of any changes of any kind before this event.
I'm a competent computer user + programmer, and am happy to bug-chase under direction. I cannot provide any status reports, etc. currently as cannot get into the program.
Would clearing ~/.josm help?
