Is there a BIOS update?
No
Have older kernel versions (e.g. 11.0) worked?
Not sure. I have had this laptop only from 11.0 and the problem has been there with 11.0, 11.1 and the kernel I built from sources (as mentioned in comment #16 )
Is there a BIOS option related to AC (e.g. there are some where you can configure battery/performance optimized whether on AC or not). If yes, does switching it help?
I do not find any such.
I doubt that we have such a bug for X60 in 11.0 and still in mainline kernel, the X60 is too widespread, I know several people using such machine at office. Something seem to be fishy. Hmm, ok there are not that much with a docking station...
It is a t60p and not a x60. I tested with few more machines and it was reproducible everywhere.
Does sysreq still work if the machine freezes? Pass the sysrq_always_enabled boot param.
I passed this option. But, sadly, no luck. sysrq did not work when the machine freezes.
Then when it freezes push: SysRq-8 SysRq-T button (SysRq is a key, normally near the top-right corner). You may want to try SysRq while the machine is still running first. Output is normally seen when you switch to console 10: CTRL-ALT-F10.
Output is normally seen when i go to ^-alt-f10 , but when the machine hangs, this output is also hung. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
