It has a nvidia video card installed. I was using their binary driver but removed it and am just using the supplied 2d one. I still get the random freezes.

I am still trying to resolve this but it does appear that when I set the screen saver to just a blank page the problem goes away. -- Gerry Doris <gdoris@xxxxxxxxxx>
