Hey Group; I am seeing a problem which seem to only happen in SuSE9.0. This system is a triple booting system with XP Pro (for playing with "wine" only!), Fedora Core 2, and SuSE9.0. When running KDE and at various times the whole machine locks up - keyboard, mouse and CPU. This system seems to lockup running SuSE's enhanced Athlon kernel-2.4.21-215-Athlon running a stock X server and KDE 3.1. Running 2 IDE CD-RW on the same Primary Master/Slave cable. It appears not to be heat related. I have upgraded all of the NVidia chipset with NVidias drivers. It is a A7N8X-E MB/CPU=Athlon Barton Core XP 2800+, 512 DDR PC3200 memory and ASUS FX5200 AGP card. Anyone else seen a similar problem? -- 73 de Donn Washburn __ " http://www.hal-pc.org/~n5xwb " Ham Callsign N5XWB / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 307 Savoy St. / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / Sugar Land, TX 77478 /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ LL# 1.281.242.3256 Dump Microsoft Software - Stop virus email Email: n5xwb@hal-pc.org " http://counter.li.org " #279316
