From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
RH 8 is installed on an Compaq W6000 with 2 Processors 1,8 GHz and 1 Gig. 
Memory and a nVidia Quadro4 750 XGL video card.

The installation works fine, and there are no Problems. 

But after a small time (between 5 minutes and an hour)the System hangs up. 
Nothing works. Only the power Down solves the Problem. 

Problem appears when doing big ftp transferts or with an X emulator (Reflection 
X) or directly connected to the machine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install the system
2.Works on the machine
3.System hangs
    

Actual Results:  Nothing works (no keyboard, no mouse, no network connection).

We use the following driver : NVIDIA Quadro 4 (generic). This driver is the 
driver provided with the distribution.

Comment 3 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:40:33 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
