[ 41.007654] EXT3 FS on hda1, internal journal [ 322.133656] Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 276476174785 ns) Boot went fine but the system got pretty unresponsive later, 2-3 seconds delay after keypresses on an idle system and a hang during shutdown which i had to resolve by pressing the power button (not to switch it of the hard way, but to keep it rebooting) > > CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y > > does CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n make a difference? doesnt change anything > does "irqpoll" make any difference? > does "notsc" make any difference? > does "idle=poll" make any difference? I tried these with the HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n, irqpoll and notsc dont change a thing, idle=poll makes it boot normally Greetings, Eric
