Let me start by apologizing for the slightly off-topic nature of my =
email, but people on this list seem to have their wits about them far =
better than other Thinkpad groups I've seen.
I have two Thinkpads, a T60 and T60p. The T60 runs Windows XP SP2 and =
the T60p runs Ubuntu 8.04 on 2.6.24-19. They are both running BIOS =
79ETE2WW.
Both of these machines occasionally lockup with inconsistent frequency. =
When this happens, the mouse stops working, all input on the keyboard =
stops working, and the video locks up. I did notice that fn+ScrLk (to =
turn on/off NmLk) still works, though.
Since this problem happens in both Linux and Windows I don't believe =
it's the OS but I'm hoping someone here has run into a similar issue and =
can provide some guidance and/or URLs.=20
Thanks,
Tony
