Hi, I upgraded to 3.1 to pick up the latest MPI-2 code to do some development work over the summer, and while I was at it built first the 2.6.11.4, and the 2.6.11.6 kernels.
Using xconfig, I set the APM and ACPI values to "off", and built working kernels. Without graphical display manager, the laptop was stable and useful, but I am fond of having four xterms rather than one, but with a graphical display manager I experienced system hangs, with both the -4, and -6 kernels. I'm sure this is a well-known, and well-solved problem, but I have to ask, as Google hasn't dropped a clue in my lap(top). The time and number of mouse events to hang is a variable, but a "short" one, with a hang coming in between 5 and 15 minutes of not very vigorous mousing about with a browser, running an aquarium screensaver (or "hanger"), or just moving xterms about. Clues please, Eric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
