Currently, my desktop's running F16, fully updated. Just a few
minutes ago, I was reading my morning comics on-line when my box
froze. Nothing responded. Even the second hand on my desktop clock
stopped moving. Just as I was about to try for an alternate text
console, it rebooted itself and seems to be fine. This is the third
or fourth time I've had it lock up in the past few months, but the
only time it's rebooted itself and, until I "upgraded" to F16 it
never happened.
Once had a PSU dying on me with quite the same results. Sometimes
freezing, etc. Became worse and worse and eventually the PSU died.
Not initially, but eventually it had problems booting up, once that
started occurring it made it quite easy to figure out the problem
(was suspecting overheating, bad connection, GPU before that).
