Hi,

One of the machines I'm running is an amd64 machine with an x86
install.  I'm using a radeon 9600 videocard.  When I do an apt-get
upgrade, the new xorg packages royally break the system - there's a
kernel panic due to machine check exception every time x tries to
start.  I was able to grab the rpms off of the install CDs and
downgrade, and everything works fine.  Anyway, just a heads up in case
anyone is facing the same problem... I'm not sure exactly how to fix
the real problem -- anyone know how to debug mce errors?

Thanks,

Matt
