Well, I don't have a way of accessing from the outside, but they are
freezes such that there's nothing I can ever do other than reboot.
Of course, it might be a video card problem, but since switching off
USB in the bios seems to cure it, I doubt it, and the nv driver seems
quite stable. It is also the case that I have to turn off USB in order
to install in the first place, otherwise installation hangs.
I have:-
2.6.10-5-amd64-k8-smp
MSI Master2-FAR, dual opteron
Nvidia FX5200, Xorg with nv driver
Ubuntu 5.04
