i had the system lock up on me with 2.2.2. i wonder if it wasn't
actually some weird interaction between the update daemon and the
kernel. there is a new update daemon (2.0) which was designed to work
with 2.2.x kernel series. i remember seeing a message about this, but
i can't seem to find it now.
