It would randomly crash, making the screen flicker (like a wrong frequency). Most of the time i was able to switch consoles back an forth to restore, but sometimes i wasn't possible. I was however able to ssh in from another machine, even if it looked like something was terribly wrong - the connection ligths on the switch turned on and off at random, and the floppy/cd drive ligths was blinking like they use to during kudzu. On fc3 early days, there was also a bug with the intel gfx drivers that caused the screen to "hang" - patches of it wasn't redrawn. Kyrre
