The last two occurrences have been similar.
memtest86 passes without problem on this system.
With 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 and previous 2.6.10 kernels the system stayed up
and working for weeks on end.
The other problem with 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 is the ntpd needs restarting
10-30 times before it runs continuously

I think this has been happening to me too. But everytime I reboot, the
logs give me no evidence, and I don't know how to gather any useful
evidence. My server just slowly hangs. Normally when it starts to hang,
the video is the first to go. The TCP/IP functionality seems to be the
last to go.
