Here at work with the following updates:

Hyperterminal doesn't show anything when the displayserver stops responding.

Empeg initialized with the following output to Hyperterm:
Adding Swap: 16596k swap-space (priority -1)
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/
hda4 is mounted.

--- Running Picker... ---

The fourth option was chosen.
Vol-adj is on.

--- Picker Complete. ---

Press q now to terminate to a shell prompt.

Running Player...
Using non-standard cache size 168 (adjustment 12)
empeg-car 1.02.

I also noticed that the empeg's drive is active while Winamp is trying to connect to song after song. Perhaps Winamp is not patient enough while waiting for the stream?

I haven't observed any hard locks ups this afternoon. The delay between songs (sometimes a song quits mid-way) and the displayserver coming back is between 20 seconds and 2 minutes.

I've attached my system stats from displayserver. This snapshot was taken with Winamp streaming and my browser as the only connections to the empeg.

Does anyone know which 'input' Winamp 2.73 uses? I tried adjusting the caching in the in_mp3.dll module but it had no aparent effect.

Any ideas?
