memtest has been running all night long... when I came to work it was on pass 6 without errors. It will be running the whole day till I'm back home... but I guess that the RAM is not the problem...
I stopped memtest after pass 14 without errors, so it should make clear that the memory is not an issue...
Before launching memtest the system was up in graphical mode running KDE 3.1 ... and whoops! KDE crashes with a SIG11 :-( I'll try with KDE 3.2.2 before reinstalling from scratch... but, IMHO, this shouldn't be the solution.
I booted the system normally, stopped the graphical environment and downloaded/installed KDE 3.2.2. During the console-mode session the system was stable, as it should always be. Tonite I'll stress the system under KDE 3.2.2 to see if it blows up somehow... I'll keep you posted. Martin
