When you say ``needs to be rebooted,'' have you tried leaving it for a while 
(say, half an hour) in case it's only spinlocking on something and times out. 
Waiting for nonexistent DNS service is a common item here.

When you say ``when I logout'' I presume that you're running in graphics mode 
and this is when your video gets reset before loading xdm or kdm.

What type of video chipset does the beastie have?

Have you tried again without the PCMCIA cards? If more than one, what 
combinations have you tried?
