I have an ASUS CUV4X-D Dual Processor Mainboard based on a VIA
694XDP chipset. I notice from the archives that someone else
has also reported a lockup with the m/b when using two cpus
and have some info that may be useful to track it down.
Using kernel 2.4.5 the kernel locks up sporadically at boot
time. When I enable the NMI watchdog it occasionally gets
enabled prior to the lockup and perhaps can be useful for
debugging the problem. Here's what happens:
I typed this in, so there may be typos:
..TIMER: vector=49 pin1=2 pin2=0
activating NMI Watchdog ... done.
[locks up here, or before activating NMI watchdog]
[this normally happens next but not in this case
number of MP IRQ sources: 21.
number of IO-APIC #2 registers: 24.

If this doesn't make someone go "aha!" then I can set up a serial
port for debugging and repeat this a few times.
Thanks,
Paul
