May I suggest you consider the fact that you may have a buggy video card
that freezes the bus when it gets overloaded? At which point the whole
system is dead - not the kernel, but the _hardware_ is dead and needs a
reboot.
Yes, it has happened a lot, although it is getting rarer. It used to
happen even more back when we had that wonderful VLB thing that is
finally not really an issue any more.
And btw, GGI wouldn't help at _all_.
