The thing is that I'm using the x86_64 kernel on a turion64.

Also I had some other issues, like the fact that I couldn't see the 
tty[1-6] virtual terminals, and after suspending the system it came back 
with a blank screen which sometimes got fixed by trying to move to one 
of the text virtual terminals and back to graphical mode.

These two issues were fixed when I moved completely back to the NV 
driver from xorg.

The problem is that I still get hangs at random time.

Right now I'm gonna try the acpi=off option at boot time.

Any other ideas are welcomed?
