Equally important is an accurate description of how it fails.

In my case I'm still trying to form an accurate description, because all I
can say so far is what I have covered in previous emails, namely random
crashes and freezes with no apparent pattern to them.

I have a TT with TOS 3.06. NVDI 4.11 R8 (although I don't think this
affects the problem I have). N.AES 1.1.0. Kernel, 1.15.1 beta 1.3 and
1.4. Not sure about beta 1.2. Beta 1.1 definitely seems to be ok. I the
last day or so I have tried official 1.15.1 and so far it seems to be ok,
but I'll know for sure after some more days.

This whole problem is very perplexing. Maybe it has now disappeared as
mysteriously as it came.

(I will write another email about Q-funk's problem which is much more well
defined and I have discovered some clear points about it.)
