Maybe look at the output of '/sbin/lsmod', or '/sbin/lspci'.  The Sound
Blaster Live! drivers are very unstable by reputation.  I had a Live!
card for a while, and the PC it was in hung constantly.  After replacing
that card, the system runs fine.

NVidia's driver, or the XFree86 driver?  It sounds like you're using
NVidia's.  If that's the case, GET the proper kernel-source-2.x.x
package.  Don't expect drivers built against the wrong kernel source to
work.
