    SubjectRe: [2.4] Nforce2 oops and occasional hang (tried the lockups patch, no difference)

    Not when apic is disabled. (And I'm guessing you mean 2.4, right?
    Although IIRC the patches are available for both.)

    The patches for enabling/using apic/io-apic on nforce2 work fine, except
    instead of oopsing it hardlocks semi-randomly. (It ran fine for a few
    days, then hardlocked, and upon reboot it only made it about 10 minutes,
    then another 30 minutes, so I went back to an unpatched 2.4.23 with
    'noapic'. Now that the hardware has arrived I can move production
    elsewhere and do further testing.) I was under the impression that
    nmi-watchdog was supposed to prevent the hardlocks (well, turn them into
    oopses), but no such luck here.
