What could that be? I have the same problem. However the lockup most often occurs after switching with Ctrl+Alt+Fx from plain text console to X. PS/2 mouse + keyboard, gpm running. > 440BX UP celeron mobo here (Abit - BH6?), '94 AT keyboard, '2000 A4tech > 2-wheel mouse, various Linux 2.4 versions (usually -ac, currently 2.4.10ac3). > I'm using NVidia Xserver module, but it doesn't seem related (the lookup > occured with no X while starting gpm once or twice). I had this problem for quite some time with 2.2.x and 2.4.x kernels, XFree86 3.3.x -- 4.1.0 and S3 Trio3D / NVidia TNT2 M64 / NVidia GeForce2. Lockups with S3 convice me that NVidia module is probably irrelevant here. > If I kill Xserver (haven't tried with gpm), the keyboard (and mouse) start > working again (the next Xserver spawn works fine). I've found out that ssh'ing to the host and running chvt 1 (as root) helps. Switching back to X usually works fine. I haven't tried monitoring /proc/interrupts, but even the magic SysRq doesn't work during the lock-up. P.S. I'm not subscribed to linux-kernel.
