[rhn-users] complete freeze

[Jason Vinton]

I just got a new dell precision 370n with redhat enterprise linux 3
preinstalled.  First, I ran uptodate and got all the latest patches,
then I downloaded firefox and xine
src(http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xine/xine-lib-1-rc7.tar.gz) . 
Running firefox results in the entire computer freezing.  Nothing
works.  I can't even log in via ssh.  Compiling zine causes the same
problem on one of the calls to gcc, the computer freezes.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Jason
