I agree, that matches my shutdowns as well ... usually very soon after
boot, within a minute of associating with an access point.

I've got /var/log/messages being saved in /home/olpc/log/messages, and
here is the time sequence of messages when these uncommanded shutdowns
occur:

Jul 30 01:29:29 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  (eth0): device state change: 7 -> 8 (reason 0)
Jul 30 01:29:30 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Policy set 'Auto quozl.linux.org.au' (eth0) as default for routing and DNS.
Jul 30 01:29:30 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) successful, device activated.
Jul 30 01:29:30 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) Stage 5 of 5 (IP Configure Commit) complete.
Jul 30 01:30:23 localhost init: tty4 main process (1755) killed by TERM signal
Jul 30 01:30:23 localhost init: tty5 main process (1756) killed by TERM signal
Jul 30 01:30:23 localhost init: tty2 main process (1757) killed by TERM signal

As you can see, roughly 50 seconds elapsed from when the access point
association completed and init decided to kill all the tty processes.
