I've gone 21 days once and 24 days once. 30 days is significant, but
not conclusive. I do not run xscreensaver FWIW. Whatever problem there
is, goes beyond screensavers. To quote a dead president: "There are no
easy answers". When I was on the 24 day run, 30 days was my goal at
which time I thought I could say I was stable. Now, I'd say 30 days is
a statistical fluke if I can get that far.

My only hope is that some are running very stable with console only. I
agree that we have enough evidence here that probably every
existing hardware, software, and BIOS combination has been tried
already.
