    Hello.

    I'm getting lockups on my dual P3 Katmai system under 2.4.22. It worked
      fine with 2.4.21-pre4 (I had an uptime of about 130 or so days), but
      I tried to upgrade to 2.4.22 and it's now started locking up. I get
      no Oops output or anything. I've tried both the vanilla 2.4.22 and
      the vanilla 2.4.23-pre1 kernels.
    Symptoms: screen will occasionally go blank for a split second, then
      the system locks up after about half an hour to two hours (doesn't seem
      to be a strict time). When it locks up, I don't notice any LEDs on the
      keyboard flashing, and I don't notice any other activity. The Magic
      SysRq sync and unmount keys have no effect, so far as I can tell. It
      seems to be truly locked up. The reset button will, however, reset
      the computer; I don't have to pull the plug.
    Any ideas on what might be causing this? Anything I can do to get
      a better idea what's going on?
    Thanks!

    -Joseph
