My machine crashes hard.  I cannot telnet to it, or
even ping it :(

I took a look at /var/log/XFree86.0.log... I am going
to attach it.  The last line in the file is

"(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libfb.a"

I am not sure if that means anything, but I am
assuming that that is where it crashes.

Thanks, Nick Henderson
