Unfortunately, debugging the problem is rather difficult, as there is
no kernel panic on the screen, nor anything in the logs. It's a VIA
motherboard/processor, and it's used as an MP3 jukebox. When it
freezes, it literally freezes all of the sudden. If the music is
playing at the time, the music just goes into an endless stutter (like
when a CD has a big scratch and keeps repeating the same short clip of
audio over and over again). The machine didn't have this problem when
we were running this particular kernel, and so I want to give it a try
to eliminate the possibility that something changed in newer kernels
that would cause this. It could very well be some other problem, but I
have to go back to what I know what did work before I can deduce if
the problem lies elsewhere.

Hi you don't say what linux you are using but the computer is a pc.
The kernel you seem to want is a FC4 kernel and I do not see any problem
getting it. But I suggest you have something else wrong with your
system. If you know your system is crashing due to kernel panic then
there might be something to be done.
