Dear Friends, I have Suse 9 (nothing fancy) running on an IBM xSeries 225 with a IBM 5i raid controler. Works great most of the time, but for some reason it locks up every now and then (i.e. black screen, no lights on the keyboard, its just dead.). I've checked the memory and run the diagnostics tools supplied by IBM without much luck. And obviously there are no logs with errors since it just locks up. Does anyone else have one of these boxes with a similar problem or should I ask, does anyone have a similar box with any advice etc.??? ##################################################################################### This e-mail message has been scanned for viruses by our email server and cleared. #####################################################################################

I had that problem too a while ago. So I stopped using the screensaver. I wonder why that software continues to be propagated in such a parlous state. Paul Abrahams

No power saving features activated and no screen savers. It locks up when
transfering large files. I have updated the BIOS, NIC firmware, Drivers
