i'm using scsi, aic7xxx to be precise. there are a couple of sym-something cards
too - i could rewire and use those if it would help, but not today.

i'm just testing now with the 3rd network card module (natsemi) not loaded, i
suspect it will still crash but just wanted to rule it out. i'll back out that
cset as soon as i have an answer on this.

i'm having random crashes under load (diff & pings). No messages in the logs or anything, just reboots or hangs.

Are you using SCSI or IDE? What device driver?

Please can you try backing out the cset labelled 'a better fix for blkdev request merging' i.e.:

cset -x41051ec1NERNxLF017rAWe7ljBk92w

When I went to look at the screen after a hang to see if there was an oops or anything like it, the screen was blanked and wouldn't wake up - anyone know how to stop that behaviour?

That's Linux behaviour -- not a lot we can do about it. Collecting crash messages is much easier if you have an attached serial line...
