CONFIG_APM=m # CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y # CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE is not set CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y You may suffer from a broken graphics card BIOS that hangs if a local APIC timer interrupt arrives. I've seen this happen on G400 and Radeons, and an old S3 I think. Another issue, but not the one you're having, is that configuring APM=m is known to hang some BIOSen at the point when the APM module is unloaded, again due to BIOS code not handling local APIC interrupts. Fix: Disable CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK. You don't need it. Also set APM=y if you're going to have it at all. (An alternative fix is to disable UP_APIC, but only do that as a last resort.) I also noticed you had enabled a lot of ACPI stuff. This is almost certainly pointless on a BX board. /Mikael - 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/ | ||||||||||
