I've only had weird lockings with 2.1.36... since I bumped up to 2.1.37,
it's been fine. I *did* have sporradic locks under .36, tho.

My hardware:

- Intel Pentium 166MMX (generic MB)
- 64M RAM
- 4M Matrox Millennium
- IDE Hard Drives and CD-ROM
- BusLogic BT-932 PCI Ultra SCSI Host Adapter
- 3c509
- Sound Blaster AWE64

I'm not using any modules, and I wasn't when I was on .36, either (yeah,
so shoot me ;-)
