True, but it was pretty damn close (lots of 0xffs) > (Perhaps he doesn't know about > "dmesg|less".) Oh I do but of course didn't think to check :-/ At the time I fired off the posting I had actually just discovered that the system was still alive (I thought it was ooopsing and unresponsive, the hardware has no indicators whatsoever, so there's that). Since I don't need fancy graphics or let alone X on that system, I figured out that the module gma500_gfx was causing the problems in my case. I just blacklisted the sucker and the problem's gone. Just for info, here's what happens when I modprobe it manually (accompanied with a blanked screen): [ 750.356470] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 [ 750.412907] ACPI: Video Device [GFX0] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no) [ 750.413121] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: No _BQC method, cannot determine initial brightness [ 750.416940] acpi device:03: registered as cooling_device2 [ 750.425323] acpi device:04: registered as cooling_device3 [ 750.425586] input: Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/LNXVIDEO:00/input/input11 [ 750.432866] [drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013).
