I assume you are running the generic "vesa" driver? That seems to help 
for me.

On mine I see the disk light flash when there is no cd installed. Not 
sure about when a cd is inserted if it stops. But I guess if music keeps 
playing after lock that indicates no crash too.

Someone below mentioned going with fc3. Possibly it fixes these type of 
problems. Guess I had hoped fc2 whould become stable like fc1 was 
reported. Maybe I will move to fc3 when I get a chance. Hopefully a 
clean install would not be required?
