No but I'm in similar situation. Few days go by without a 'dropout' of
some sort, sme days more than one. Sometime it's aj 'internal error,
sometime it's an application that has to quit (Alt-Break often helps
at this point). Sometimes work is lost. Sometimes a reboot is the only
answer. Sometimes it's an application I'm actually using; sometimes
it's something on the icon bar that I'm not actually using. Among the
worst offenders seem to be my email software and more recently
(probably because I've been using it a lot) Draw. It's very irritating
to lose emails before they are ready to send. CtrlB and CtrlR are very
useful for back up and recovery - until one accidentally presses CtrlR
in error and replaces an almost complete email by an earlier version.
Aemulor is almost always loaded.
Compared with the Panda, the Pi which I'm increasingly using as a
'first choice' m/c, seems rock solid. I thought this might be because
I had no internet connection to it. However, I do now and so far it
still seems rock solid. I'm beginning to seriously consider putting
the Panda on one side and using just the Pi (with my old RiscPC still
providing backup).
