Three starting points 1. Run memtest86 on the box for a bit. I don't think its bad RAM however 2. Plug in a PS/2 mouse if the box doesn't have one already. That avoids a hardware flaw on the AMD that we don't current work around in software 3. Check if 2.4.20 behaves the same way. I think it may fix your short pauses but I don't think its going to fix the hang alas. It would be useful to know however - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
