Hi Pete,

Thanks for that. My swap partition is enabled, but not used (if I'm  
reading the output of that command correctly).

I had a look in syslog and messages about a month ago after a couple of  
crashes/hangings, but couldn't find anything out the ordinary or anything  
that even looked worrying/relevant. I'll look again the next time it  
happens, see what I can find.

Any ideas about the keyboard issue? It happened again tonight.

Thanks,
Mark
