Hi,

Until today my box (MDK 9.0) had been running fine. Now it locks up hard
at random points during the day requiring a power-cylcle to get it out
of this state. I suspect that apmd may be the culprit but its hard to
tell as I get no indication in the logs. One thing I have noticed though
is the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace sequence that is usually reserved to kill X
seems to put my machine into an halted state.

The doesn't seem to be any way of disabling power managment from the
BIOS and I have uninstalled apmd and apm-scripts and am still getting
the same problem. Is there any way to stop this hi-jacking going on?
Who's trapping it and killing my system?
