Hmmm... this is part of an issue I need to triage on my two
machines. I have two machines with similar hardware specs:
Intel W3520 in both
12GB RAM, same vendor in both
Different nvidia cards; same model -- 9600GT, different memory
amounts, different vendors
Different DVD drives (shouldn't matter)
Different hard drives
An LSI RAID card in one
A snd_emu10kx sound card in the server/workstation.
There are a few variables in the mix, but my machines hardlock
from approximately a week usage with sources based off r206031, using
ahci(4) [instead of ata(4) -- I switched over my machines to use
ahci(4) 2 weeks ago], and this particular driver version... I'll
downgrade nvidia-drivers and see what happens.
Thanks,
-Garrett
