xtabi.mit.edu is my SPARCclassic Athena workstation.  At least four times
now over the last two weeks or so, it has seized up in one manner or
another, never when I've been using it, so I don't actually see any
symptoms.  The result is a perfectly frozen system.  Power cycling seems to
restore it to health, but only for a short while (indeterminate length).
I'd appreciate a more thorough diagnostic procedure being performed on my
workstation.  This is NOT my primary machine, so this is a low priority
request.  Attached below is the result of the last command, to show when
these errors were encountered, should they correlate to other events.

Thanks,
Tim
