Hello, all!

Slackware-current, 2.4.29 kernel. I'm getting frequent X crashes while
running KDE. It seems to happen more often than not when I have a
konsole open. Screen blanks, and I get either a very few (1 to 4) or
many (100s) of vertical lines in various colours drawn on the screen.
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Keyboard also locks at this point. The only ways out
seem to be to either cycle power or reset the computer.

I'm not Linux-savvy enough (yet) to diagnose where the problem might be.
Can anyone get me started? If this were Windows I'd suspect buggy
hardware, since the drivers are pretty vanilla (i810 chipset & video).

Nick.
