I have been running 2.1.62 for "1 day, 55 min" with no problems. I use
the X-Inside xserver, Matrox Mystique 4MB, NS Communicator 4.03. I have a
Pentium 100, 80MB RAM. Nothing wrong here. I have been using it nearly
contantly for the past 24 hours with X running on the console and have not
had any problems.

Gee, I always get confused between a hung machine and a slow pre-Pentium
computer running X11 and Netscape! :) :) :)

Intel hurts us enough with it's Pentium processors, please don't add
insult to injury! I already had this CPU replaced for the FPU problem. :)
