Sorry I haven't been watching this thread but a lot of the random freezes I've seen are either caused by ACPI or faulty ram. It might be advisiable to turn off acpi on boot and see if the problems stop. For a memory testing see http://www.memtest86.com/ I would suggest that you let it run for quite a while to see if finds any problems. -- Regards, Graham Smith --------------------------------------------------------- -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
