Comment 20 for bug 157777

Also experiencing this problem since upgrading from 7.04 to 7.10. Machine was fine under 7.04. Now, with no hardware changes, lock-ups occur during activity anywhere from between 30 minutes to a day. Sometimes the SysRq key doesn't work, other times it does. Seems worse at times of high workload. Setting to confirmed. If there's specific missing information given what Andreas Troschka has already deduced please let us know. This is a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+ with nVidia chipset and nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA]) graphics. 2GiB RAM. Mixed PATA and SATA devices. Given the other comments on this bug, you'd suspect the kernel initially, wouldn't you?
