Well I can report my first 'lock up' which happened this afternoon. I had
relocated the system and it hadn't been up for about 12 hours. About
10 minutes after rebooting, it was locked solid - required power cycling (the
reset switch reset the system (I think) but not the monitor - the advantages
of these new 'green' monitors :-)
To add to the available details, vanilla 1.2.4, ethernet networking (NE2000),
'old' gcc (2.5.8).
I've reverted to 1.2.3 in the interim.
