opteron 170, part 4

I am getting [sick]{20060805101941} [of]{20060803233234} [this]{20060802210126}. It froze again.

So to date I have disabled swapped out the motherboard (but still have the same NForce4 chipset), enabled all sorts of debug features in the kernek, removed the Nforce4 network card (based on a hint on a web forum), and put in a PCI NIC. It’s still unstable.

I had noticed that it never froze under console, just under X. The next attempt is to disable DRM. I did this through the xorg.conf… let’s see what happens next. I am no longer optimistic.

###Update

Not being optimistic pays off. I’ve been running my Opteron 170 stable w/o DRM for almost a week.
