Hey Simon, early that morning i had the last freeze with hardy + 2.6.24.21 (released 20.10.). After that, the decision was clear to update with "sudo update-manager -d" to intrepid. During updating it freezes again - crap - . At 7 am taking the normal 64 bit intrepid live cd and i installed the intrepid again. To make sure that this works before pressing the installation button i was pressing F6 and added the follows; nohz=off and noapic. I did that only to be sure having a quick install. It went well after the first boot i still got the fan blowing me away. I set the flag "noapic" in the menu.lst. This fixed the prob. Now it works very well and i'm hopefully that my 6715s HP will not freeze again under intrepid. I also installed fglrx from envy; type in terminal " envyng -t" and it works fine yet.
But now i also silence with the fan i never had before...hmm.. lmsensors ... says that the temperature is ok ... and acpi from ubuntu is working... it sounds all to be good now my question at you: What does "noapic" exactly do? Is there some danger to my laptop to run this flag for ever? :-) greets knuutsen -- Harddisk to slow on HP 6715s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134856 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
