Re: lost ticks and Hangcheck

I use the no_timer_check kernel parm and that keeps the clock from
running at double speed. I still see some other annoying boot-time

As I mentioned, no_timer_check doesn't fix it for me. In fact it makes the problem significantly worse. I tried it again just to be sure. Also I tried noapic again and it doesn't help either.

I found there was an upgrade to the NVIDIA graphics driver that addressed a clock issue (I don't know if it's related to my problem). I upgraded from version 7667 to 7676. That seemed to help a little bit, at least in prolonging the amount of time I could reasonably use the system. Someone in another thread mentioned that they thought this problem might be caused by something in x.org, which I am using.

Any other ideas or patches would be much appreciated.

thanks for your help,

Nathan
