I'm not sure of a good way to troubleshoot this since I lose all responsiveness from everything. I suspect even running from a command line and writing the output to a file would fail if the entire system locks up, but I haven't tried it yet.

1.1.11 should work too then...

Well, the entire OS lockup is most likely a bug in your video drivers, you can try upgrading them.

Re the AppDB, you could just add a new "version" labeled as "private/free server" or similar.
