getting kernel panics with f11 beta...



Hi all,
 
new to this list, and I'm hoping not to get shot down...
 
I've installed the f11 beta (kde version) from cd on to a T40 laptop (old Pentium M at 1.5Ghz)... 512 Megs RAM
 
I have had extreme delays (like 3+ hours to install), and even 30+ minutes to boot from CD on this system... not sure if it was a CD/DVD driver issue or what...
 
In any case, the install worked after much patience,
 
then I did update the system with yum...
 
in both cases, before and after the update, I'm getting consistent kernel panics, which I have sent back for analysis.
 
Also, I'm getting some weird graphics 'melt downs' over time, what happens is 'fuzzy' / 'dirty' graphics are progressively happening mostly on window borders/title areas, and it seems to get worse over time.
 
If you would like a screenshot, I could provide one... but basically, imagine a non-linear type corruption which would turn an otherwise monochromatic background section of a title bar into a dual or tri-colored pattern...
 
I have run low level diagnostics on this system, and a full memory test which shows no errors.
