Clearly you don't own a newer ACPI-based i815 Sony Vaio :-) I've had to upgrade to a cooker kernel to get it to function at all (2.4.20-2mdk, was either that or compile my own from scratch). Now it is fine as long as I'm careful about video switches, but I can reliably kernel panic it by logging out of XFce or leaving VMware in fullscreen mode until the Windows "it's now safe to turn off your computer" screen. I've sent a note to Juan Quintela, but since I can't get the oops because it's video related, there's nothing he can do. Then there's swsusp, which is another excellent source of crashes. The mailing list is active with lots of patching going on, but no one has gotten a new Vaio to work properly yet as of beta 18. -- Jack Coates Monkeynoodle: A Scientific Venture...
