system freezes (was: X freezes)

[Marcelo Chiapparini <chiappa@uerj.br>]

Hello,

I am running woody in an Athlon system. Sometimes, when I am working, the 
system freezes. I though that it was a X problem, so I started a thread on it 
in the past. When this happens nothing works, no ctrl+alt+bksp, no 
ctrl+alt+F1. The keyboard doesn't respond. The only way to resucite the 
system is with a hard reset...In order to restart the system in a more  
clean fashion, I enabled sshd. In this way I can log into the system from 
another machine an try to restart the system. The ssh daemon works fine, I 
tested it. Today the problem appeared again, the system freezed. But when I 
tried to log into the system from another machine I get the message "secure 
connection to xxx.xx.xxx.xx. refused". So when the system freezes, the ssh 
daemond stops running too. I think that the problem is not a X problem, but a 
more serious kernel (or something like that) one. 
I don't have any idea of what is wrong in the system...

TIA

Marcelo
