Can anyone help? I have had my system lockup twice now in the last week, 
I am most shocked! Both occasions the system has blown out my X session, 
and then locked completly forcing me to hard reset the system. I cannot 
reproduce the error, the only apps I was using are Thunderbird, Firefox 
and terminal I am using KDE. Linux tux 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4smp #1 SMP Fri 
Jul 15 01:05:24 EDT 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The system is a Tyan twin AMD opteron 64 system (2.6Ghz) with 2 GB ram.
The system is upto date with patches.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Neil.
