freeze upForum: HD Install Topic: freeze up started by: Antikx Posted by Antikx on Oct. 07 2007,23:49
Hello,I'm running the latest DSL (hard-drive install) on a IBM Thinkpad 390e. Info about laptop: < Thinkpad 390e > If I keep using the computer it seems to be fine, but if I walk away from it for exactly 10 minutes I come back to a computer that is totally unresponsive and requires a hard reset. I have watched the clock on the computer and verified that at exactly 10 min the time stops increasing. I've gone into the BIOS and disabled all the APM stuff I could find but this doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions? Is there power management options I should look at? P.S. I does it when I run DSL off the CD too. Posted by roberts on Oct. 08 2007,00:00

I checked and it was already starting with the noapm switch, so I tried the xset entry and ya! it doesn't freeze now. Thanks! I searched the forum for quite a while before posting but I guess I didn't use the keywords that was in that thread. Thanks again! |
