Are you running SMP? I think it might be SMP related as well, and I'm almost
sure PART of the problem was i810 ALSA support, when actively playing.
I DO know 2.6.5-rc2 has been FAR more stable, tho not perfect. I've been
attempting to install Gentoo from a stage-1 compile and not having much luck, but
I'm finally getting somewhere now that I have 2.6.5-rc2 installed. As I mentioned,
it seems to kernel-freeze MUCH less, now, than with 2.6.4 and earlier (incl. the 2.4
kernels I was on originally). (The problem with the Gentoo install now is that I'm
trying to do it a bit more customized than their handbook has instructions for. <g>
However, I'm progressing, and I was compiling kernels back b4 I'd fully switched
from MSWormOS, while I was still booting back to it to do mail as I hadn't even
gotten a Linux mail client set up yet.. So, yes, I'm accustomed to doing it the hard
way right off -- but ending up knowing FAR more about the system for it. <g>
Anyway, I just found a combination of kernel-sources, glibc, kernel-headers, and
nptl, that seem to work, and am rebuilding glibc as I write.. The nptl is the not
directly documented in the manual part of THIS bootstrap... <g>)
