After wasting an incredible amount of time and ABS this weekend, I think I finally narrowed my issues down to Repetier Host.
For short prints (say <90 minutes), RH works great. Anything more than that and something goes wrong and the printer stops responding.
The same print, with the same gcode in ponterface completes every time.
Other than getting my sd/lcd kit setup, is there anything I can look at (buffer size?) that will help be figure this out? The log in RH will either be empty (layer xx of yy) or will have a bunch of "line not line x + 1" which makes me think buffer issues.

I'm not sure of the specifics, but most of the buffering is done printer side. This is why you can hit pause, and your printer will continue on for a few moments.
