Hi,
Any one come up with why the system still locks up ?
I have tried everything that I have seen on this list to stop the
lock ups and tried what I have seen on the internet.
I had a problem with this until I disabled the BIOS power management
stuff and the linux kernel power management stuff.
Excellent point! I ended up having to add the following to my
/boot/grub/menu.lst entries:
apm=off acpi=off
And that was on a Dell PowerEdge 2600 that you'd "think" would work fine.
I had to do that in 10.1 as well; although in 10.2 those parameters were
NOT needed. Very strange.
In the distant past, adding "noapic" also helped, although I didn't seem
to need it this time.
Anyway, you can test by just typing those things on the options line at
the boot prompt and booting with them and seeing if it works. Then if
it does you can make them a more permanent part of your bootloader
configuration.
