The problem comes in when I try to exit X and it freezes the computer entirely and I have to hit the reset button. I also can't get into any of the virtual consoles via Ctrl+Alt+[F1-F6]. it freezes when I try to do that too. I'm wondering if there is some type of fix for this that I can get or something... its really annoying. Thanks -jalsk
