	ASUS CUR-DLS, SMP, two 866MHz PIII, PCI onboard vga (ATI Rage XL), PREEMPTION, Xorg X11
	64Bit em0 (Intel) GBit NIC
>Description:
	FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7 (also BETA5 and BETA6) freezes after heavy load on X11 or NIC freezes
	after a while and leaves computer system without network connection while the system is
	still up and running. The NIC wedging is rare, but I can force the machine's freezing 
	by doing a lot of graphical activitis like showing a 170 MB big geophysical TIFF map 
	in ImageMagick's 'display' or using intensively Mozilla in the most recent stable 
	version.

	Environemnt: FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7, buildworld done today the last time. Xorg as taken from the
	ports, I think the most recent port's version. ImageMagick and Mozilla as compiled 
	a few days ago. Kernel config as taken from GENERIC, but with PREEMPTION enabled and several
	unused drivers disabled. The problems occur also with a conservative GENERIC and UP kernel!
	While 'ongoing to freeze' sometimes I have the chance to change to the console (Ctrl-Alt-F1)
	the machine changes to console and begins to beep (sustaining beep).
	
	I did some hardware stress tests with memtest/memtest86, burnP6 and BurnMMX/burnBX to
	ensure memory and CPUs are all right. Stressing hardware over several hours did not
	take any effect. 

	Using the same system in a non-conservative SMP environment without graphics leaves 
	the machine very long in an operative state, but suddenly network connection gets lost,
	not ping in, no ping out while the state of the em0 adapter is still shown as UP.

	dmesg output:
