From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98) Description of problem: I just installed redhat 7.2 on my thinkpad with KDE. A few minutes after loggin in, the system froze completely. It happened while I was typing, not after a period of inactivity. Control-alt-backspace did not work, and I had to power off to reboot. I have successfully run redhat 7.0 previously on this machine (Thinkpad a21e with 196 meg ram). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Additional info:
Did you get anything in /var/log/messages? It is highly unlikely that apmd has anything to do with this (apmd takes care of handling apm events like "connected to AC power" or "disconnected from AC power", it does NOT handle CPU idle events). Chances are this is either a kernel problem or an XFree86 problem (or broken hardware). If the machine is on a network, can you still ping it when it's locked up? What hardware are you using?
Closing due to lack of input
