User-Agent: Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; de) Presto/2.9.168 Version/11.52

On my Netbook, an ASUS EeePC 1201T openSUSE freezes randomly. I tried different apps trying to find out which application may cause the freeze. I tried KDE, Gnome, openSUSE 11.4 and 12.1 without any success.
Sometimes it runs hours and sometimes only a few minutes. It freezes and I can't do anything except for hard reboot.

Alt+Print+B doesn't work, Ctrl+F1 doesn't work either... I checked the Netbook for around 13 hours with memtest86+ without any warning about a broken RAM.

I ran the Netbook for almost a day without any problems so I think it might be problem with the Kernel but I'm not sure where to start the search for informations.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Turn on and wait
Actual Results:
The complete Netbook freezes and I can't do anything.

Expected Results:
It shouldn't freeze.
