[Gllug] [OT] Linux question - core dumps

[George F. Saxby]

Hi,
 Mine will dump in the roots home directory every time I have never ever told 
it to it just does on a crash this is a LINUX box I am talking about so the 
human memory is iffy had 2 crashes in 5 years and the last was 4 years ago. 
Now if it was XP I could tell you more mine crashes about twice a dAY:-[ 
Sorry the powers think it is better & more productive than siome free give 
away program LoL
