2.6.7 kernel

2.6.7 kernel

[Philip Clark]

Hi,

I have been using the 2.6 kernel with my DELL latitude CPiA 366XT now
for sometime and it works great, but there are some quirks which would
be worth trying to get fixed, most are related to apm.

It used to be that when the battery power became low the machine would
automatically suspend to disk. This seems to be disable now and the
machine just crashes. 

fn + D used to blank the screen in 2.4 and in 2.6 it only blanks it
momentarily. 

If I suspend with my pcmcia wireless card in place and disconnect the ac
cord when suspended then it always crashes. 

There are quite a few things like this I would help to try to debug. 

Here are my config settings, I've tried the "display blank" to no
avail. 

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for any help
