Comment 35 for bug 507504

I have now learned a little more. I apologise if, as an amateur enthusiast, I am not invited to comment here. I reinstalled Lucid for the nth time yesterday. My chipset according to Memtest 86+ is an Intel i845E/G/PE/GE (ECC: disabled)/ FSB:132MHz. Having read about the general answer to the crash symptoms for Intel 8XX chipsets I have removed (using Software Centre) Compiz, turned the screensaver to Blank Screen,and turned off all power saving options. Initially the system ran well. The crashes started at some after I had set F-Spot as my screensaver and tweeked the power saver settings. The last crash I think coincided with opening a second Firefox window. Fingers crossed again now for an improvement.
