Your computer is newer then most of mine.

Can you post your dmesg here in [code][/code] blocks? it may or may not help us.... help you.

On systems that crash, (I don't own many portable devices.. so some of this may not apply to you.)
  • Run memtest+ (An easy find via Google)
  • Remove any recently installed hardware, software doesn't typically crash a system.. but, it's possible.
  • Determine via dmesg if there are any obvious signs of interrupt routing problems, if so.. disable apm/pcibios and use acpi, or vice versa.
  • Try booting GENERIC.MP(bsd.mp), this kernel *will* work on non-smp systems.. with the added bonus of enabling ioapic(4).
