As I am sure you are aware, there is quite a lot of changes between "minor" |
| 16 |
kernel series; in this case 2.6.24 -> 2.6.25. |

I haven't, nor has anyone reported any such issues (via IRC, e-mail, ML or |
| 22 |
bugzilla) with any 2.6.25 release. |

There are many fixes between 2.6.25-r4 and 2.6.25-r7. However, without |
| 28 |
knowing the specifics of your hardware and lockup issues it is impossible to |
| 29 |
guess if any of the fixes would relate to your specific setup/scenario. |

If you have not developed a hardware issue and 2.6.25-r7 displays the same |
| 38 |
issue, I'd suggest filing a bug with all the relevant info available. Please |
| 39 |
provide a minimum of emerge --info, lspci output, and your kernel config. |

Good luck. |
