I have 49m of physical ram + 100m swap. And I have SO 5.0 (personal
edition) and netscape4.08-libc5.

Ahh.. It was not the kernel problem at all. I noticed there is a problem
with XF86_S3V which crashes (locked up the mouse pointer along with
everything eles but MagicSysRq worked fine). I used to use XF86_SVGA due
to this problem but lately I was testing XF3.3.3 and switched back to
XF86_S3V, and forgot about it. Possibly caused by a clash in between glibc
(StarOffice) and libc5(XF86)....

Sorry for a bit of disturbance. :)
