I did try kernel.org 2.4.26 in SMP mode, and it indeed lasted longer, but it also locked up sometime. So, right now I am using 2.4.26 single-processor (was using 2.4.22-1.2188.nptlsmp before). Guess I'll give 2.4.26 SMP a spin again and collect some more precise info. This time I will try to disable suspend S3 on the BIOS, but IIRC there was no such option (I could only choose between S3 and some other option which was not 'off'). Best, Andre -- Andre Oliveira da Costa
