I appologize if this has been reported already.
For the curious: The caps lock light does _not_ flash when it locks up.
the title explains it all.. well, okay, no it doesn't.
I can't figure out why, I have troubles with the uvcvideo driver generating a lot of 135 errors on my integrated webcam, so I blacklisted the driver and no more errors pop up in dmesg
But it still locks up - it takes only a few minutes and doesn't seem to matter whether the system is under load or not.
I used to get lockups before 8.04 - due to the c1e bug - which is now fixed. The way to get around those lockups was to use noapic, so I tried that here.. doesn't fix a damn thing. Tried pci=routeirq (due to some forums post that suggested it...) , still locks up.
I'm using intrepid now with vmlinuz-2.6.24-21-generic and it all works.
It's not due to overheating - I watch the sensors they remain WELL within tolerance levels.
It almost always seems to happen while something is interrupting however - a mouse movement, when I type something.
It doesn't lock up immediately, that's the funny thing, it takes about a full second to lock-up.. What I mean by this is the system comes to a slow hault. Example: Last time I was reading dmesg to see if any messages popped up worth interest, nothing. I typed dmesg again after finishing reading line by line the entire damn thing (about 3-5 minutes), I saw it type in dmesg much more slowly than I had typed it, then took a a second to register the newline, then froze without outputting anything (In other words it started to lag behind my keypresses before it locked up)

The update went fairly smooth although it ran into problems with menu.lst and I ended up copying the new entires from the maintainers copy over to the existing menu.lst and keeping it when updating the kernel, said it failed, but then it seemed to work anyway..
I'd post lsmod too, but I'm running in the old kernel so I can't really..
Also - side note - network manager seems to like to get stuck on "Requesting network address from SSID", then disconnect, then try again. It usually helps to just right click on it, disable wireless, do it again to enable wireless, then it usually connects to my AP.
Other than the lockups with the latest kernel, I like it.
