Try acpi=off to see whether it makes any difference. I actually have a new datapoint too. I now have an identical laptop as the first one (X31), with a much older BIOS: BIOS Information Vendor: IBM Version: 1QET73WW (2.11 ) Release Date: 02/13/2004 OEM Strings String 1: IBM ThinkPad Embedded Controller -[1QHT16WW-1.03 ]- (the one that crashes is 3.02/1.08). This one does _not_ crash with ACPI. Exact same installation (I swapped harddrives). Oddly, the wireless in this one doesn't work very well. Aironet in both, same firmware version too! NetworkManager just refuses to connect, and even when I manually iwconfig/dhclient it's very reluctant to associate. At home where I have WEP on, I have to play with iwconfig eth1 key [1] / [2] / [3] , and eventually it associates and works. Well, I just plugged in a prism54 and now it's happy ;) I think I'll take both laptops home and play with them during the weekend Maybe see whether there are any differences in the BIOSes as seen by that intel firmware testing tool. Hmm... Seems like there are enough clues for a bugzilla entry. I'll do a bit of poking around still and do one if nobody gets around first. -- Pekka Pietikainen -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
