Hi,
I've a Clevo 2700C and installed woody on it, and all stable packages
from security.debian.org and new kernel and XFree from
http://www.fs.tum.de/~bunk/packages/.
I've compiled the kernel 2.4.20 and the bug is this:
When i'm on batery power, everytime the KDE starts the PowerSavings
the laptop just hangs, the image freezes, and even if i try i can't
switch to text mode.
This problem probably isn't related with this kernel, i've tryed
2.4.18 with the same configuration and it hangs.
The stupid thing is that, when i'm on AC power, it never crashes
This is very stupid, why do i need a laptop if i can only use it when
i'm on AC power :-) I think it worked fine with older kde versions
such as 3.0.3, not shure with 3.0.4. Currently i have 3.0.5a.
Can this be a bug in my BIOS? i'm using the 1.13 version.
Thanks for your time
Hi thanks for those who replyed to me, i've fixed my bug :-)
I've reinstalled my Debian from my cd set of woody 3.0r0 and recompiled
the kernel.
What i've changed from the last kernel that stop this stupid bug:
PCI Access Mode was BIOS and now is DIRECT
APIC was Enabled now is Disabled
it never crashed again :-)
probably it was a bios bug... who knows? my laptop is a Clevo 2700C,
BIOS 1.13
