Hello, I have just installed a new debian box (etch version). Everything runs perfect until I have installed a smp kernel, I have tried 2.6.15-1-686-smp and 2.6.16-1-smp. It has a hyperthreading (or something similar) pentium and it seems that in order to take advantage of that feature I have to use such a kernel. Well the problem is that after using the X environment (kde or gnome) the computer freeze completely. It doesn't even answer to a ping.
I don't know how much help I can give, but I'll try. You mention after using an X environment that the system freezes. Does this mean that you can successfully boot the system, and Xorg starts? Are you able to boot with a non-smp kernel successfully and not have the system freeze? Usually after you install a new kernel through apt-get or aptitude, your boot loader will get updated to show the new kernel and the old kernel. At least it does for grub.
I do not where to start to look for a solution,.... Luis. -- http://antares.sip.ucm.es/~luis In a world without walls, who needs windows -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
