Have had that problem (along with several others like crashing X servers every few minutes, rendering the entire system inoperable) too. The solution was to underclock my AMD K6-2 / 300 downto 250 MHz (3*83). Now everything seems to work OK. I didn't yet have time (didn't want to create the time for it...) to check out what piece of hardware is causing the trouble, but it may also be the combination of several components... Hope this help... Regards, Maarten.
