From: "Ron M. Hoffmann" <hoffmann@MIT.EDU>

System name:		paddington.mit.edu
Type and version:	IP22 8.3.19 (with mkserv)
Display type:		NG1

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		twm

What were you trying to do?
	I was using the workstation.

What's wrong:
	System froze.  Display was intact but not updating,
	Moving the mouse produced no cursor movement.  System
	did not respond to ping packets from another machine.

What should have happened:
	Ummmm

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Yesterday the machine had died during reactivate in
	the manner already known and had to have it's passwd
	and other files restored in order to reboot.

	I ran the patch release this morning and rebooted.
	The system was running for a while until it crashed
	this afternoon.
