I have the same issue with my Wallstreet (192 RAM, 10 Gb hd, same
video setting on BootX). I had always assumed that the problem stemmed
from my current lack of RAM. The one time I DID get the problem to
disappear was when I built a 2.6.5 kernel. I did not run that for very
long as I was mainly just testing some functionality of 2.6.5 and then
dropped back to 2.4.22-g.
Anyone else have this issue?
