I get exactly the same problem on my Armada 110. Each time the screen shutted down (with APM), the computer was hanging. Try the different options in CONFIG_APM_*, there are some vendor-specific debug options that can solve your problem. And during your kernel compilation, try to touch the mouse or the keyboard each 2 minutes to keep it up. Note that my Armada still hangs when i close and reopen it, and I still didn't found why :-) -- Guillaume - Administration Systemes & Reseaux <guillaume at hostallow dot com> - http://www.hostallow.com
