Thanks to all for replies. No, I'm not on unstable; just testing. I think I do remember that a new binutils was installed yesterday, but it would have been the testing one. I don't really know how the lockups occurred. In both cases I was online at the time; I had Netscape running but I think I was actually on Mutt at the time, at least on one occasion. Everything stopped working, including the mouse. Where does one find the 2.4.12-ac kernels?
