hello there…
this is something that is happening to my Gateway MX694m laptop… I did upgrade from suse 10.1 to 11.1, I have the system up and running but sometimes when I am running some software that apparently takes some effort from the system, especially watching flv videos with MPlayer, the computer just shuts down… this gets annoying and sometimes looks like it is windows running on it instead of Linux!!! well… this also happened when I was transfering a bunch (~ 1000 files) of files form one directory to another… the most recent event of this kind happened while I was creating a makefile for a fortran code in photran (the code is composed for about 600 files). Note that this did not happen whit the old linux… in my opinion it is possible that the temperature in the system gets too high…
Any comment will be appreciated, take care,
Antonio.

Maybe heat-related? My computer shutdown once when I left it in the car
for five minutes and it was hot. Check /var/log/messages to see what is
in there when it shuts down.
Good luck.
