Yes, and open a bugzilla ticket if can be reproduced with 10.2 with all the info you can retrieve.
I did. This was a bit more work than expected as the upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2 stopped after resolving some package inconsistency with a non-informative message (sorry, forgot which). I did a fresh install of 10.2 :-( Unfortunately this made the situation even worse. In 10.1 the system was totally reliable, just the network connection died every now and than. Under 10.2, the system freezed completely two times within 24 hours. It also lost the network once. Where a simple ifdown/ifup worked in 10.1, it had no effect in 10.2 (also no alarming messages in /var/log/messages, just no network). As it is running important network services, I can't affort much downtime. I disabled the internal NIC and placed a good old 3com 3c905B. No problems sofar :-) Some more info: in 10.1 the problems appeared more frequent while the system is in use interactively. It has a nVidia GeForce 7300 LE graphics running in dual-head configuration using the nVidia driver. It also appeared that during times with poor response from the University services (the machine is NIS client) things got worse. I'm afraid this isn't much to go after :-( I guess the advice must be not to use the described combo for anything serious.
