metoo. I'm really struggling to recall an occasion on which the NMI watchdog helped diagnose or fix a bug. The usual scenario nowadays is that I ask a reporter to enable NMI watchdog and for various reasons (mostly mysterious) no useful information comes of it. If it's causing machines to go down then the current tradeoff doesn't seem right. But _is_ it causing machines to go down, after the ACPI fix? (the patch doesn't vaguely apply btw). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
