I'm almost positive the problem is the network card. I would suggest trying a tg3 or an e1000 based card. it fixed my problems. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

By freeze I mean a complete freeze of the system (ie. no system log entries, but system [ie. disks] is still running). I have reported this is an Ubuntu bug a while ago, but have noticed that the three times this has happened an amanda backup was running. I even moved the time of the backup to prove the point I'm running a RAID1, with one of my folders encrypted. Both the holding disk and final backup disk are single disks. My question is if anybody could think that amanada could be the contributing factor for the failure and if so how. By chance are you using r8169? If so, that may be it. It was causing all sorts of hard locks and soft locks. Trever
