..so..here is my report..dont know if its significant..reflashed, installed battterypatch, set to custom-karam profile, and speedpatch...ade some reboots, sometimes xterm error appears again, if i use the described methods of removal it doesnt work, but if i reboot again it goes away..so it comes and goes out of nowhere from where i can tell..otherwise, battery and performances are great as always and no more freezing.
