------- Comment #53 from mprosi...@volny.cz 2009-03-05 14:31 ------- Hi ykzhao, since my last report I tried (for another cca 40 hours in sum) the kernel with nolapic_timer (Comment #51) and it have not freezed once. So I can now choose between using low frequency or C-states to save processor power. I prefer the C-states (processor on max, frequency without single freeze in more than month) but it would be nice to have both at once. (In reply to comment #52) > Hi, Martin > Thanks for the test. > From the comment #51 it seems that the freeze is difficult to reproduce if > the boot option of "nolapic_timer" is added for the tickless kernel.
