Please try to boot with intel_idle.max_cstate=0 instead of maxcpus=1.

Ok, this does not work. If I take that option and splash=off it looks like my very first attachment (https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=419002) but with other values.

Well, so it looks like we've introduced the problem in the 2.6.37 cycle (or some time around).

Would you be able to test the latest 2.6.36.y kernel from kernel.org to confirm that it doesn't have the problem?

No. First it does not happen all the time and I do not want to run on .36 all the time. Second I do not have time to build a kernel. If you want people to test a kernel please use the buildservice and provide packages. -- 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.
