Hello,

On my laptop I just started getting this error below about 3 weeks ago.  I
have tried to track it down, but I have been unsuccessfule.  The message
in the log is...

Dec  6 06:33:35 blg kernel: ide: failed opcode was: 0xef


This is the last message in logs and then I am not able to close any
windows in KDE or write to the HD.  The only way to get things to work is
a power off.  I have been unable to track down what is causing this
problem.  It can happen from an hour to 6 days.  That is the longest I
have made it.  I have another laptop which is almost exactly the same and
it never happens.  Any ideas on how to find the cause?  I do notice that
the machine near the right side of the keyboard some times is a bit warm,
but I am not sure if that is the problem.  If the machine is hung and I go
to one of my X-terms on the machine I quicly find out that it is hung.  An
other symtom is the clock in the lower right conner stops advancing.  Also
the repeat on the arrow keys stops functioning.

Thanks,
