I've been running linux for about 5 years now and haven't seen anything
like this before.

A friend and I just upgraded our workstations from RH6.2 to 7.0.  We did
a full re-install however, not the upgrade off the CD.  We are both
having a lot of problems where the system will hang.  I've had it hang
in the middle of moving my mouse across the screen and doing nothing at
all.  It's been installed for about a week, and there hasn't been a
single morning yet where I've come into work to find the machine still
on.

I can't ping it from another box, I can't get any video, keyboard or
mouse movement.  A hard reset is needed.  There is nothing in the log
files at all, they simply stop cold:

Oct  9 08:23:56 koily syslogd 1.3-3: restart.
Oct  9 08:23:56 koily syslog: syslogd startup succeeded

System info:
Microstar MB
Athlon 700
Adaptec 29160
Seagate 160 drive
Matrox G200 8MB
Intel Etherexpress 100
ES1371 soundcard

My friend has the some config only with a 2940 controller and UW drive.

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks,
John
