I'm having the same problem. I think it has to do with timer problems... Does /sbin/hwclock --show freeze your box? It "sometimes" works on mine, but it more often than not locks it hard (especially as user, not root) with no hints in syslog or anywhere else as to what happened. This is a

I'm honestly not sure how to try what you suggested to try, since I'm nothing even remotely close to a kernel geek and it was over my head. However, I'd gladly test anything that you think would be worth testing, if you would please put it in way that I could understand, such as "change line
