I have Compaq Presario v2404us (consider it HP) Turion based. FC6 x86_64 
installed. Is is equipped with ATI Radeon Express 200M videodapter which 
I use with opensource drivers. I experience regular daily crashes (1-2 
times per day) with kernel panic (blinking CapsLock led, darks screen, 
non-responsive system). I did not notice any correlation between the 
crashes and my activity on this laptop, it can happen equally under 
heavy load as well as right after waking up the machine from the suspend 
mode.

kernel version 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6

familiar symptoms huh?

note, I did not have such problem using FC4 on this machine for the 
whole year.

because of kernel panic, I assume I can't catch any output in the log 
files about the cause, can I?
