Hard Lock-ups with 2.6.1 Kernel
So I've managed to install a purely 2.6-based kernel on my computer after about a week of fighting with rsync and DNS. During the install, there were no problems with emerge-ing or fetching. Now that my system is running off of the gentoo-dev 2.6.1 kernel, the system will go into a hard lock about four minutes into compiling a large package (it has done this for both Xfree86 and glib). By hard lock, I mean that keyboard input is no longer accepted by the box - num-lock does nothing, ctrl-alt-del doesn't do anything either. I'm absolutely stumped.
For those of you who have made the switch to 2.6 - are there specific modules/options I'm probably missing from my configuration? Or would you be more inclined to think this is likely a hardware problem? (The computer is an Athlon 1.3GHz, t-bird class, running on an Asus A7A266 mobo)
For the record, I've got the standard 2.6.1 modules required for a portage-based system installed (as mentioned in the install guide - devfs and the like).
Thank you for your time. (cross-posted to
