[iPAQ] h3800 isolation bug?

Hay all....

Okay this is a weird one... I leave my ipaq (3870) alive throught the
day. Occasionaly once the screensaver kicks in, I cannot get the ipaq to
come back to life again untill I do a full reboot. Some of the symptoms are:

-pushing buttons will not wake the screen back up
-pushing suspend will not suspend/resume the device
-the charging indicator functions (flashing when on cradle)
-my network connectivity is not interrupted (I still am ssh'd in and can
work on the system)
-when i try to stop/start x i get error messages (see below)
-when i cat /proc/hal/light_sensor, it hangs untill i issue a break

It currently is in this state, so if you want any info from the
/proc/asic/registers or whatever, just yell.

here is what happens when i try to stop and start the x server.

sh-2.03# /etc/init.d/x stop

dd: writing to `/dev/fb0': No space left on device

I am running the latest kernerl (2.4.18-rmk3-hh3) with a slightly
non-bleeding edge bootldr (2.18.24) (but have seen this on the newest
bootldr 2.18.38).

Any ideas??
