Potentially this is APIC related, you might want to have a look at your BIOS options. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Getting fairly frequent (couple of times a day) lock ups with the latest F17 kernel on my ThinkPad T61P. Couple of times, it was when clicking a link in a Thunderbird e-mail; others, the machine was idle, still others, on putting the machine to sleep. No such lockups with 3.4.6-2. Not quite sure how to characterize this specifically enough to file a bug report.
