Did earlier kernels work OK? Can you identify the most recent 2.6 kernel
which didn't have this bug?

Without powernow! feature, works fine.(I tested every -rc kernel
after 2.6.8 for x86_64).
With powernow! feature,works bad at least after 2.6.11-rc*.

I'm using xserver-xorg at debian,6.8.2-dfsg.1-5 happend OOPS
at any process using X any older kernel, but update X to 6.8.2-6,
any processes not/with using X got null exception and down
when enable powernow! feature :-(
What happened?

Ohta.

I'm using a K8T Neo2 FIR with the same processor and powernow-k8. Up
with 2.6.13 since Sunday, no problems noted. Mine is a SuSE 9.1 based
system though.

Maybe BIOS related??

I thought this problem,too.

But,I was upgrade BIOS from v3.3 to v9.2,this issue has happened yet.

# And,I have to put "pnpacpi=off" to kernel boot line to
# use w83627ths sensor (-_-;

When upgrade X 6.8.2-4 to 6.8.2-5(or after),this issue has often happend.
I'm using nVidia Geforce 5200 as Display adapter,but this issue
has happend bot Debian's driver and nVidia's driver.

What's wrong?

For relate,I put result of "lspci" on this machine below.

Ohta.

Hmmm. I use a low end Radeon 7000 in mine, so our configurations
diverge. I'm using stock SuSE X.org.

nVidia issues ?? I've no idea really :-(

I saw something very related in one of Bongani's posts on kernel bugzilla;

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4851 (scroll to the bottom)

Is there a specific kernel version which started this?

Thanks,
Zwane
