Ferry: I would be surprised if 64 or 32 bit made a difference. Basically your results have ruled out that it's related to whether a 64 bit OS is used. Screen resolution difference also seem unlikely (I've reproduced the problem at 640x480 on my EeePC). I would be surprised if it is RAM related.

I think so too. It will probably turn out to be related to the 945G chip, or if I am unlucky, to the revision of the chip. But I have had these problems in the passed, and as the kernel got updated they went away again . Soi I am sure it can be done. Ferry -- You received this bug
