Hmm.. I do have a similar problem. I've stopped getting "random"
crashes/lockups on the console since switching to 951021, but if I
leave X running overnight I'm almost sure to wake up to a frozen
machine.

I don't _use_ X (my machine is 4mb) so it's never happened while I
was working on the machine. I have no idea what causes it--possibly
the swapping from the "daily" run. My swap is 40mb, but with X and
daily chugging away, I suppose it could fill up.

I'm also not running the newer X11R6--I don't have the link band-
width to get something so huge. When I get back to school in January,
I might be able to try that out and see how it works.

Soo, another (not too helpful) data point.
