[ale] Linux lockup issue

[Chris Woodruff]

Actually I think it is a Abit motherboard (mine is for PIII 
and Celeron) and I have a Celeron 1G with it..  I have checked the RAM but 
will do another scan of it tonight.  It has a GForce2 video card and I am 
using the NVidia drivers.  I think it could be the RAM or else the 
MB.  Thanks for the help.

  is the hardware new or untested?  had a problem like this 
  with an Abit BP6 motherboard.  i would start checking the simple things 
  like ram, video (onboard Sis?), and the like.  when you reboot does the 
  memory show up correctly in the BIOS?
