Help? Machine crashes from time to time.



I have a DX2/66, 32MB of RAM, (2 years old, no PCI) IDE and SCSI drives,
and NE2000 ethernet and I'm seeing weird crashes. Sometimes I get messages
in /var/adm/messages, sometime the machine just locks up. Running 1.2.13. 

This is what the messages file looks like ...

And so on ... sometimes it's a different process (eg. rlogin). the machine
get a fair amount of use - it's my workstation running X/FVWM, and it's
also running a majordomo with a list of about 300 members, sending out up
to 20 messages a day to the list. 

Any help would be appreciated - I'm sort of suspecting the ethernet card, 
as I never had any problems with it until I plugged it into our network 
here (the card is a Trust comb card)
