Stupid question, I suppose, but I hadn't seen it in this list, so thought maybe someone has seen this and/or could give me a direction to look to fix it.

Lately, on my EEE 701 (with 1G ram and an 8G sd card), using debian squeeze that is updated regularly (as in today), and using gnome (well, not the whole thing, but what will fit), I have had steadily worsening behavior with both iceweasel and now galeon. I can look at one webpage, maybe two, but then it freezes and will not come back even after a long wait. I went to using galeon since iceweasel has been so prone to these freezes, but now even galeon is freezing up. I seem to see this whether or not the computer is connected wirelessly or on a wired connection. I can still do other web things, and both ssh and icedove have no trouble, so it does not seem to really be a connection problem.

I would suspect that some library is mismatched or something, but my desktop computer (same release of debian, same gnome) does not show any problem. I'd suspect that my non-complete gnome desktop is a problem (I don't have room for evolution or other programs I don't use), but again I don't have this on my other machine, either.

Has anyone else seen this? Any clue for troubleshooting? I got the machine in Summer '08, and immediately put debian testing on it, and have been using it that way since.
