Hi,
It seems I have found a culprit when system based on VIA KT266 chipset (Atlon + nVidia) is completely locks up with flashing light on the keyboard. My system have run for 6 hours without lock ups, so it is quite possible I found what caused problem.
1) run 3ddiag, possibly it will complain that nvidia glx module is not loaded (or not configured, I did not remember exactly).
2) Run yast sysconfig editor, search for nvidia here, and enter the proper name of 3d glx startup script - switch2nvidia_glx instead of switch2mesasoft.
PS. if it will help you, too, please confirm. OK ?
