hmmmm I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 with ATI M4 and this works for me, I even unplugged/replugged in the power to confirm.
I wonder if there is something in the bios. Can you get to the bios with Fn + F1 without issue? If so I have suspend and S2D timeout disabled and Display Close active. If your system locks up or reboots when you try to go to bios...then it screams APIC issue, but like I said the noapic works for me and as far as I could tell your lilo looks correct. If your system does lock up or reboot after trying to go to the bios from within linux, then I would recommend compiling the kernel without apic. Check the archives using APIC as the keyword for some instructions on how to do this http://www.mail-archive.com/cooker@linux-mandrake.com/ --- steve holditch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Here's the lilo output. > > # lilo > Warning: 'menu-scheme' not supported by boot loader > Added linux * > Added linux-nonfb > Added failsafe > Added floppy > -- > --- SI Reasoning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > looks good to me.
