[TriLUG] How would you diagnose "random" system hangs?

[Andrew Perrin]

Just to follow up: having downgraded to kernel 2.6.18, this system has 
been up for three days now, not exactly a long time but much better than 
anytime since I "up"graded to 2.6.20. I consider this pretty good evidence 
that something in the new kernel conflicts w/ my hardware. To-do: figure 
out what the conflict is....

Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

Andy
