I have a similiar problem with myepia motherboard. I have an older version. of the motherboard, it is a 933 Hhz version. I find that my system will run for awhile and randomly lockup. It seems to happen more when I am using the X11 windows with YAST or trying to configure the system. I installed the no ACPI and it still locks up. I turned off all the power management facilities and still it locks up . I suspect that there is an incompatibility between the Cyrix processor and the versions they have.
I read somewhere that there is a problem running these chipsets with the framebuffer on. So it might be an idea to turn off the framebuffer and see what happens. When booting try entering vga=normal and see if your problems persist. I have been using EPIA Mini-ITX Motherboard with SuSE 9.1 as a firewall for over 3 months without a problem. But it is headless and does not have any X11 installed. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------
