Hi, I have a weird problem with my machine; i've just installed SuSE 9.2 on a P4, no unusual hardware etc. If I leave the PC alone for some time the system completely locks up. I.e. I return to the machine, and the screen is in powersave mode, the PC is still on, but not amount of keyboard bashing or mouse waggling can wake it. I also tried to ssh in, but the machine never responds. Now obviously this is some powersave issue, but I have checked the configuration (set to "performance", i.e. no power saving) and the screen saver is set to ignore powersave stuff. As per usual I'm sure that adding pci=noacpi to the boot line, will fix it, but I'm sick of using this as my linux cure-all :) Hope you can help?
