What do you mean by stuck on the road ? Can you give us a screenshot
of Snort running on your computer ?

Snort stuck its process, there is no any clue or message at all for this issue. 
I am using TSL for snort box, and I using the default env. (without xserver)
I can't capture any screenshot, (i didn't also remote it using ssh (^^!))

- Have you test your Snort installation first to test all your rules,
using -t (if I am not mistaken) ?

Yes indeed, I have test it using this following command:
snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -T

- Are you using Snort as a Daemon ?

Nope, for a first shake its run with this following command
snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -A console -K ascii 
so I can notice what was snort done to console.

- Are there any traffic on your network that is monitored by Snort ?

Nope, because my snort was hanging around the process, there
is no packets was detected, even for a small parts. 

Just like Joel says, that my box was lack of memory, 
now I am trying to use 1 GB of memory :)

Thanks for your response Tedi :)
Happy days...
