Re: Solid lockup on latest benh 2.6 kernel + PB 12"

I've rushed ahead and made the change to mine, and it doesn't seem to make any 
difference.

Sometimes a hang on boot, but what DEFINITELY triggers it is doing something 
like ls /dev on a console. From an xterm it's fine, but from the console - 
bang the framebuffer locks solid. The box is still running fine though.
