it's strange that you experienced that problems from early versions,
i've never heard of such problems before... does it happen while
you are running a certain program, or it's a random crash?

if it's a program, please tell which one so i'll try it too..

as for the consoles,did you try by opening  a program that redraws
on the whole screen, like mc ?
