Modrana running sometimes leads to battery disconnect reboot
I find Modrana to be one of the best navigation applications freely
available on N900 till the following happens:

After a random amount of time of continuous usage (typically a few hours)
of modrana, N900 hangs very badly in following state

1. You can't switch the display on by display toggle button.
2. It doesn't respond to calls, power button, camera or any such external
event
3. The device starts getting very hot.
4. It doesn't respond over ssh if I try to login to it to figure out its
state.
5. Only way out is to restart by removing the battery. (If I wait for a
while for it to recover the battery gets drained.)

I do not know of a way to enable logging so that some postmortem of this
state can be made.


Would appreciate any help to analyze this issue.


Mayuresh.

Sounds somewhat like this bug:

(except in my case SSH still works when the screen won't turn on)
