Newbie debugging question

Hi,

I've been searching the net for quite some time now without success so I
decided to ask the professionals. I'm looking for kernelhacker newbie
friendly documentation on how to figure out a little more about a kernel
lockup to be able to give the developer of a device driver some more info.
The problem is that after a while the machine locks up with Caps Lock and
Scroll lock blinking. I don't see any logs and no messages on the console. I
found some posts describing similar events and it was said that the kernel is
not completely dead in this state. Is there a way to get some more
information? Where should I start reading.

Please CC me since I'm not subscribed.

Thanks,

Richard
