After booting the system, I found it would crash (blinking keyboard lights) within a few minutes of starting xwindows. Upon seeing the notes about the AC'97 driver causing problems, I commented it out from the /etc/modules.conf and I have been stable (although mute) since. The motherboard is an Intel D845GBV (uni-processor), and according to Intel the (built in) sound controller (quoted from the spec sheet http://www.intel.com/design/motherbd/bv/index.htm) "Audio subsystem for AC '97 processing using the Analog Devices AD1981A codec featuring SoundMAX Cadenza" Although I don't have a copy of the oops message I'm sure if it would help I can set up a serial console to catch it. The lines I had in the /etc/modules.conf (that I commented out) are: alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio alias sound-slot-0-0 i810_audio alias char-major-14 i810_audio alias sound-slot-1 btaudio pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1 || : my .config file (for the sound) is: # Sound # CONFIG_SOUND=m # CONFIG_SOUND_ALI5455 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_BT878 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_EMU10K1 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_FUSION is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CS4281 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_ES1370 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_ES1371 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_ESSSOLO1 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MAESTRO is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MAESTRO3 is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_FORTE is not set CONFIG_SOUND_ICH=m # CONFIG_SOUND_RME96XX is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_SONICVIBES is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_TRIDENT is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MSNDCLAS is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_MSNDPIN is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_VIA82CXXX is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_OSS is not set CONFIG_SOUND_TVMIXER=m Let me know what else I can provide to help.
