Are you by any chance running X w/ screensavers enabled? I had a problem w/
my 8.0 installation crashing hard - total freeze, nothing in the logs (that
I saw, anyway), etc. The machine was largely idle also, and it was a Dell
(albeit a desktop model), though I'm sure some of the hardware is the same.
Anyhoo, the crash only happened while the screensaver was running.

For me, the problem went away once I recompiled my kernel, though to tell
you the truth, I don't know the difference(s) between the stock 8.0 kernel
and the one that I built.
