[Lighthouse Keeper in the Desert Sun]

The last 2 nights around 10pm, my system has been freezing up totally.
What I was doing at the time:
case a (sat):
seti at home on tty2
pppd running, modem connected.
enlightenment/gnome
netscape
xchat
everybuddy
ssh in terminal
'make' as su for xmms install.
it froze right after i told it to 'make' xmms.

case b (sun)
set at home on tty2
pppd/modem
E/gnome
netscape
xchat
ssh in terminal.
I was switching between channel tabs in xchat, and it froze up.

Both times I had to push the button to restart, and after fsck, there was
a big thing about 'can't locate module eth0:00-49' or so, and also ppp0
modules.  THis never happened before.
I haven't cleanly rebooted since then, though I might and see if it likes
the modules better.
