Since then I have been experiencing a freeze of the system consistently after about 10 minutes of uptime. I thought the problem was with the apm driver and disabled it - but the problem remains. I have tried to remove all the drivers I don't need for the basic operations, but the situation has not changed. I also need to disconnect the power source (battery or DC power cord) to reboot at this time since the power switch is also disabled. I suspect the problem has something to do with the ThinkPad's power management that has surfaced only with 3.1 release. I would surely appreciate any help with this problem. >How-To-Repeat: Install 3.1-RELEASE on a ThinkPad 770ED and just reboot the system. You don't even have to login - just let it sit idle for a while; or, you could work on it (make sure you don't work with any crucial files that you cannot recreate) - just wait for long enough for the timer to kick in and freeze the system. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
