I'm sorry; this was a long time ago and I no longer have that configuration on the machine with the problem. I think that the ``randomness'' of the crash was determined by when I would play a Flash-based game with the Flash 6 plugin under mozilla which also required sound (the game is to be found at http://www.sikids.com/games/bmx/bmx.html, the ``password'' is ``freebird''). In any case, after a certain amount of time playing that game (which would not have sound as I was listening to music in XMMS), the machine would halt with these errors. --Devon
