2.1.97 lockup.

After downing my ppp interface last night and going to bed, I woke up this
morning to a blank screen (relatively normal situation). But my keyboard
was dead. no matter what keys I pounded on, this situation continued, so I
was left with options of a) pressing reset b) turning off the power. When
I did press reset the system rebooted and everything was back to normal.
This particular problem has occured twice in two days with .97 kernel. I
hadn't applied any patches to the kernel, but have since applied the
system.h patch to see if maybe something there is causing me unseen grief.
BTW this doesn't seem to be anything consistant, it has occurred only
after many hours of a blank screen (console blanker maybe?). SMP is turned
off in the Makefile, Alt-Sysreq support is enabled.
