Before that, it had been reliable since assembled (about 5 years ago). Ctrl-Alt-Backspace does nothing Ctrl-Alt-F1 does nothing The SysRq key does work (I'm able to sync/remount/reboot), but I'm unable to get the console restored using SysRq keys once it freezes. When it's not frozen, I can use SysRq to kill X11 and switch back to the FB console, but I can't figure out how to get console output to show up: I see the SysRq commands being echoed on the console, but all output from them is going into the syslog. The CPU was not at all not heavily loaded, and temps and fans speeds are not noticably different than when the machine is idle. I've run MemTest86+ for 12 hours: no errors. I've tried dropping back fomm kernel 6.1.121 to 6.1.118: no change. Next, I suppose I should start rolling back X11 drivers? -- Grant
