Yeah, this is a weird one. I've noticed that if I leave my system
(2.6.11-gentoo-r9) idle with the monitor off during an emerge, it will
hang. However, if the monitor is on, then it won't hang and will keep
emerging. Normally, leaving it idle for sixteen hours makes it crash,
but I left the monitor on and it didn't.
Now, I've tried disabling ACPI and APM, but there was no change. Does
anyone have any possible clues? The monitor cable is missing pin 11, if
that's any indication.
That's a weird one. But I have servers without an keyboards or monitors
and have never seen this.
