Hi list, I'm running Debian Etch with a 2.6.18 kernel on a T22 Thinkpad. The default kernel (2.6.18-4) works well until I start X. There, the system hangs on a void screen with neither mouse nor keyboard working. I built a custom 2.6.18 kernel and I got the same problem. Actually, I have to reboot once, twice or more before getting X started ( everything works well then ). I have once managed to get a custom kernel work fine, but the USB subsystem didn't work ( no doubt there is no connection between the two ). This means that by configuring the kernel in a certain way, I can make it work. I have already had the same problem with the following distros : (K)Ubuntu Dapper Drake and following, Knoppix 5.1.1. My question is : is it due to the kernel itself and conflicting drivers or to userspace configuration ? Thanks in advance. ___________________________________________________________________________ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !
