I've experienced similar experiences when/coupled with:
- Login is done via gdm -> Gnome 1.4
- At times the keyboard input just dies and only mouse events work
I've also encountered exact same messages and unexplained freeze and
reboots on:
- Dell 5ke Laptop with ATI Mobility 128 and XF 4.x and NetBSD
-current 1.5ZA
- Regular no-name PC with ATI Xpert 98 Card XF 4.x and NetBSD
-current (1.5ZA to 1.5ZB)
I've had marginal success if I do not use gdm at all.
I know this is bad report, but this is all the information I can give
at present.
