I am seeing lockups on my wife's a810n system (AMD Athelon 64) running 32 bit. I am leary of 64 bit until I get the 32 bit working since I am more familiar with it, and currently it seems that some stuff is still not 64 bit. I did find a couple of memory errors, but reseating the memory sticks seems to have cleared that up (12 hour run no errors). It works longer and with fewer problems. Screen updates seem to drag a bit, but I see that someone mentioned disabling Pango for firefox, so maybe that is the problem. I will see if Pango is running on that system. But the hangs are real.
