But yeah, idle=poll > would be nice. idle=poll fixes it. The fan gets a bit noisy though ;) Perhaps a suitable test would be to set up a PIT interrupt, do a hlt, see if the APIC timer counter has increased appropriately. I got this: [ 43.709238] TSC appears to be running slowly. Marking it as unstable How come? It also happens with HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n and NO_HZ=n. It only seems to happen when idle=poll is given. > could you also boot with apic=verbose and send us the full bootlog? > http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/apic.txt I gave up on waiting for it to complete initscripts. processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 13 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 2.00GHz stepping : 8 cpu MHz : 800.000 cache size : 2048 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss tm pbe nx est tm2 bogomips : 3994.15 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
