Greetings list members,

Recently, I have been having problems with my system, evolution and
opera 7.11. It has caused me to recycle the machine several times
causing corrupted files that couldn't be repaired by me.  So, I saved my
home directory and reinstalled the system according to a fellow list
member's post I set up all my partitions as Reiserfs except for the
/boot that I made ext3. Originally, when I upgraded to 9.1 I wasn't
paying proper attention to the install and before I knew it.. well you
get the picture, not what I wanted.

This problem still occurs after the system reinstall and occurs when I
click on a link in opera and the machine locks up just as opera tries to
load the new page or in evolution when a strange font appears in an
email.  I tried the system request key combos and got it to reboot once
in this fashion, but still didn't properly save data to disk. I just had
to do it again a couple of days ago and it corrupted /dev/hda16 which is
my /boot partition leaving 2.6% of the files/space fragmented.

I read some posts on the opera mailing list about 7.11 locking up on the
vendana font and another locking with nvidia video cards.  

I am seeking comments about my system locking up and why the system
request key combo isn't working for me.

I am using:
        
        evolution 1.4.4
        opera 7.11 build 406
        qt library 3.1.2

My video card is an AGP nVidia Riva TNT Model 64 generic (I forget the
the name of the vendor)

Tia,

Terry
