I have now reproduced the lockup in 2.4.4, having passed the
additional boot parameters "nmi_watchdog=1 noapic".
To be more specific, it happens when switching from a vc running a
text console to the vc running X. I'm thinking that maybe the umount
NFS is a coincidence / red herring.

Hi Chris,
Seen the same behaviour; you're not alone. I'm running XF86 4.0.3 with a G400. My

mga_drv at that moment has I/O privileges and if it hangs, Linux hangs too.

No. IrDA seems easy, just haven't got around to it.
USB is a major pain on the HD64465 because of the way it
deals with "host" memory. I had a driver which initialised

It would help if you reported which version of kernel and XF86 you are
using. I had problems using the framebuffer in the console awhile back.
Currently, running 2.4.4+ and XFree86 4.0.3 + Matrox's drivers
(http://matrox.com/mga/support/drivers/files/linux_06.cfm) give me no
problem.
I don't run
I experienced lost of the signal when switching from X to the console
when booting with vga=ext or some of the graphic modes. It was reported
here that the problem was the Matrox drivers.
Recently, with kernel 2.4.4+ and XFree 4.0.3 (@1280x1024/head)+ Matrox

Performance is back to that of 2.4.2-ac26, and stability is a lot better. Under
heavy FS pressure 2.4.5-ac2 is about 5-10% faster than vanilla 2.4.5, the aa1,2

Hi,
It seems that ioctl_by_bdev() in fs/block_dev.c has a problem.
When initrd is unmounted it can cause OOPS.
This problem occurs in recent ac patches.
May be vanilla too.
change_root() in fs/super.c calls ioctl_by_bdev() in
fs/block_dev.c which does not set inode_fake.i_bdev.
But ioctl of ram
