Try compiling the 2.4.18 kernel with the APM support disabled. I had a similar problem with my compiled kernel where the laptop would just freeze and I had to do a hard boot. It turned out that the kernel option having to do with "idle calls" was the culprit. Here are my config settings: CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC=y CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_APM=y # CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set # CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE is not set # CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE is not set CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y # CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT is not set # CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF=y -Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
