Sorry, I should've been more clear! a) Envy hangs quite randomly, sometimes I can play audio several hours before the first seize. But after the first time it usually takes only 10-30min it hangs again, so the frequency increases but it seems random.
b) I don't use suspend or hibernate/resume. c) I have used power management settings (apm -A and apm -H) and they haven't had an effect on the problem. d) The hangs occur also with the SP-kernel.
