[petsc-users] make all freezes

[Satish Balay]

This doesn't make any sense..

If the build is hanging - we'd like to know exactly where its hanging.
[perhaps copy/paste]

If the run is hanging - we'd like to see the stack trace [via gdb] of the
location of the hang.

xorg-devel should'nt make a difference [from what we know]..
