I also experienced problems with random lockups when trying to use konqeuror and mozilla. In my case it turned out to be unrelated to the nvidia drivers (it was a problem with my modem), but I read that it can be caused by agp problems at high agp settings. The solution offered was to turn agp down to a lower setting (e.g. 2 instead of 4 or 8). Instructions on how to do this are inside the README file for the nvidia drivers. Why it affects web browsers more than anything else, I don't know. Hope this is of help! Cheers, Jason -- Jason Wood Homepage : www.uchian.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
