If it does, you can try the ThinkPad boot floppy out, but that doesn't fix 'lockups'. When you are in the wrong mode, it's pretty obvious as every key you touch doesn't do what you want it to do. (But it *does* do something). You could try 'bouncing on the num-lock' key during bootup to see if that helps. If it does then we've still got the lurking bug, but generally speaking it goes away after you build a custom kernel. Nate
