Hi,
I compile and run linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4. It works wonderful, but when I
switch to X windows it's OK. But, when I tried to exit X, it completely
freezes the box. I tried this with open source nvidia (nv) driver and
proprietary nvidia (nvidia)driver. Results are always same. My hardware is:
P-II 350, 384 RAM, BX board and Riva TNT gfx card. The same thing also
happened with vanilla linux-2.6.0-test5. I attached my .config and
version_linux outputs. Any idea ?
Regards,
Tarkan Erimer

CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC=y
...
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.

Thanks for your reply, Mikael. I will try that, when I back to the home.

Hi again Mikael,
I tried last night with CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK disabled and APM=y and that
worked fine for me.
Thanks for your very help.
