Subject: [gentoo-user] OT: kernel parameters
Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 17:57:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201106271757.01209.peter@humphrey.ukfsn.org> (raw)

Hello list,

Some time ago I saw a comment in a kernel config help page saying to enable 
this option if unexplained, random lockups occurred. I didn't need to do 
that for Gentoo, but every other distro I've tried locks up after a random 
interval - even the latest Fedora 15. I suspect I have a chipset problem, 
but Gentoo runs happily with it so there must be a config option of some 
kind.

Can anyone point me to the parameter concerned? I can't find it with grep.
