install the latest kernel to the School GNU/Linux 3.0 will solve that
problem.  to do that ,
find  your current kernel with the command
uname -a
and check whether the installed kernel is a 486  or 686
install the new kernel with the command
apt-get install linux-image-2.6.21-2-XXX (replace XXX with 486 or 686
as per your system)
