I'm just wondering if it could be a relation to the disk aswell or so..=20 > > Good luck =3D) >=20 > You too :) Heh, thanks =3D) Now, about this ACPI powersave thing, wouldn't that be enabled in windows aswell? So wouldn't this workaround be something that $other_os doesn't have to do. (In general i have always had to hack windows into not crashing when linux worked and doing it the other way around without a real fix dosn't sound that nice in my ears.. =3DP) It would be interesting to hear from nvidia about nmi_watchdog... Since nmi_watchdog with the 'not-done-correctly' APIC patch claims that nmi is stalled/locked/doesn't work... If nvidia states that this *should* work, then we have something to go on. Also, if Allen Martin (nvidia) could go trough the proc/interrupts and tell us if something is wrong, like the XT-PIC on timer. Or just give us a correct listing, since noone had io-apic-edge on timer before afair.=20 --=20 Ian Kumlien -- http://pomac.netswarm.net --=-ieiCGUVV1wIX8vtZ+D0k Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/0fyX7F3Euyc51N8RAkxuAKCq/d6hq02IcxqXfNLn3M2Uzerk/ACfQool efTup6zDB5WpTT0/aFJGetQ= =ma/H -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-ieiCGUVV1wIX8vtZ+D0k--
