I have openSUSE 10.2 (with all the latest updates) installed on a machine that has an ASUS M2N-MX SE motherboard. Quite regularly the machine will lock up, independent of whether it is running in a tty or in X (ie locks up even when X is not running). It doesn't seem to make any difference what parameters I pass to the kernel (tried noacpi, irqpoll, etc). The motherboard and the hard drive have been replaced so I don't believe it is a hardware fault unless it's the power supply. I thought it might be the wireless card but it locks up independent of whether it is in the machine or not. I've tried the latest NVIDIA drivers but as it locks up even when X isn't running I don't think it is the NVIDIA drivers. There is nothing in the log files that I can find or in dmesg. When the machine locks the only way to reset it is to hit the reset button. The only thing odd I can find is that it seems to be only finding one of the processors. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what might be happening.
