I do not have any USB device ( only firewire ). But I will disable

Hrm... try without firewire too, just in case ...
I can not, I am a firewire developer ;-)
I know :) The point of the exercice is to test wether the problem
originates from the firewire drivers ...
I finally came around to repeat the test with CPUfreq disabled: No crash
so far.
So my configuration is:
iBookG4 800 Mhz running on 600 Mhz, cpufreqd disabled.
Firewire is enabled ( no devices attached )
Sound is enabled ( no audio streams open )
USB is enabled ( no devices attached )
This seems to run rather stable.
So it seems that enabling cpufreqd causes memory corruption when the
frequency changes.
