"seems like frozen" doesn't give us much to go on. Does the machine > still ping/ssh/etc on the net? Is it totally locked up? Any disk activity > lights left on/flickering, indicating life? Can you get a serial console or > kgdb-ethernet or something to see if there's an oops/panic? Hmm, I'll test those bk-snapshots and when it locks up, I'll try to access the pc form another machine. As I said it seems (when I wait long enough, within the first minute nothing in the log survives the reboot, probably due to reiserfs journalling) the log writes the oops I posted in the first message infinite times. > Well, the 53.36 drivers are rock-solid on my Dell laptop with a GeForce4 440Go > and the 2.6.3-rc1-mm1 kernel.

I'll also try compiling latest kernel without ACPI and report back. Thanx, Prakash
