Have you tried a 2.6.20 kernel just for grins (taking note of "waiting |
| 36 |
for someone to make a stable .20" )? I experienced various lockups / |
| 37 |
freezes with 2.6.19 that seem to have left me when I went to 2.6.20. I |
| 38 |
was getting various timeouts on my ata controller that show in the logs |
| 39 |
as the source of the freezes. Of course I run ck-sources, so I don't |
| 40 |
know if the problem existed with the kernel itself or the ck patches. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
My freezes would occur in firefox mostly of course I am almost always |
| 43 |
browsing the Internet for something. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Of course, I just joined the gentoo-user mailing list today so forgive |
| 46 |
me if this was already mentioned. |
