Constant crashes

[Steve Bergman]

But he says it happens without XFree86 running.

Even though he said it happened after installing the beta, I keep
thinking it may still be a hardware issue.  In fact the very same thing
happened to me when I installed severn.  I had kicked the fan speed on
my processor to a lower setting (no, I'm not overclocking) and thought
severn was the biggest POS I'd ever tried to use.  Constant random
crashes.  Then I remembered, and kicked the fan speed back up.  Now it's
rock solid.
