[OM] OM2 mirror lockup

My OM2 has lately locked up when it feels like it!  What happens is that

when I fire the trigger, I hear a click when the mirror pops up, but the

problem is that it won't come down again (unless I turn the shutterspeed

ring to B/RESET).  It gives an great opportunity to study the pattern on

the shutter curtain, but now I want to take some pictures.  I've tryed
two different sets of new batterys without success (Panasonic/Energizer
SR44 silver oxide).  I think the camera gets worse when it's cold, and
when taking long exposures (night).  Sometimes it's OK and fires as
normal.
Does any of you know what the problem might be, and how I can fix it?
Regards
Bjørnar Rønningen
