The only time I've ever seen Linux lock up hard was from CPU failures or bad memory. Had this on a home machine - I replaced the CPU cooler and it never locked up again. On work machines I would get the red screen of death and it would tell me what CPU failed.

Some of you might remember of the last few months me posting about my system locking up running linux. This last Saturday marked my system running slackware for a whole week without locking up once. Before this I had tried Kubuntu, Mint, Debian, Fedora and Centos.

I'm guessing Slackware has something the other distros I've tried don't or the others have something Slackware doesn't. There has to be some difference. Any ideas what it is?

Thanks
Derek
