I tried the acpi=no option and so far, so good. I have even brought it back into X windows and ran some yum updates to apply some stress. I'll leave it in this state until tomorrow evening just to make sure. Then I'll try the smaller hammers. > > Question showing my ignorance of what acpi is.

If I were you, I might try to narrow the problem a little further. Eventually I would write a Bugzilla bug report telling the maintainers the symptoms, what I had done, including things that didn't work as well as things that seemed to work. If I had a workaround, I wouldn't expect much help from a maintainer because I would assume they have other problems to solve where a workaround is not known. If my Bugzilla bug report happened to be in an area a maintainer was already digging in, the maintainer might take an interest and ask me to do things to help gather more information. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkw0eoUACgkQyc8Kn0p/AZR50wCcDs5oxFPA5YEY7WxUzXnx5y1w YQQAnRj/zLTrSXXOVqxTsHfkP2golkvs =LcJc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
