Hey all,
not sure this is a laptop problem at all, but since it's happening
only on my laptop i guess it is :)
i installed Debian on my laptop choosing ext3 as fs. When i move large

happens that the _whole_ system freeze

Dear people,
another not-quite-laptop-related-but-only-happens-here story:
After I switched to ext3 on my installation partition (Acer TM 803, Debian
stable/testing, based on Knoppix 3.2, heavily upgraded) I noticed a severe
