WindowServer crash

typeorange

Registered
PowerBook G4 12" 1.0Ghz
1.25Gb RAM
10.4.4

Every day or two, my machine becomes suspended. I can move the mouse, but I can't click on anything. The clock in the menu bar stock ticking, and no keyboard shortcuts for force quit or anything else affects the machine in any way. The only way to interact is to move the mouse OR log in via ssh from another machine. The machine actually runs fine in a command line over ssh from another machine. This usually happens with I invoke Dashboard, but lately it's been happening just anyplace.

It's been this way for months, so I've spent some time tinkering

I've run the thing to fix permissions
I've run the Apple Hardware Test on both levels and it passed both just fine
I ran a very thorough command-line memory test program overnight...no errors
I actually wiped the system and reinstalled Tiger...same problem

The console reports

crashdump[683]: WindowServer crashed
crashdump[683]: crash report written to: /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/WindowServer.crash.log

SEE WINDOWSERVER.CRASH below


I posted the most recent crash log, but they're all basically the same. Hopefully one of you can tell me if there's anything I can actually DO about this problem.

Thanks:
