Had a system lockup late last night (homebrew Athlon 1GHz on Abit
KT7A-RAID, ATI All-in-wonder 8500 - far behind yours :-) after upgrading
to latest kernel, but before rebooting, when attempting Ctrl-Alt-F1 to
change from X to a VC.  Screen turned gray and no response from
keyboard/mouse, including Ctrl-Alt-Fx, Ctrl-Alt-Bksp, Ctrl-Alt-Del.  Hit
the power and went to bed so didn't look at logs.
