Hi

I just moved to FreeBSD amd64 for my desktop after i have run the i386 
port successfully for many years.

Most things are fine as usual, but i have some problems with the linux 
compatibility abi:

I installed linux-firefox on a rh-9 base and it works fine but if i 
access websites with flash-content on them
the system sometimes hangs for about 10 seconds and then reboots in a 
dirty way (like a hard reset) leaving
all discs unflushed.

Is the linux comp. abi not able to deal with x86 binaries on amd64?

Another issue is that, though the native jdk-1.5 is working fine, the 
linux-jdk-1.4.2 vm (x86) just
hangs at 100% cpu every once and when, especially the linux-firefox plugin.

There are no panics or hintful entries in /var/log/* after reboot

Thanks for any tips
