Did you try > and it didn't help ? ACPI is still activated. Removing those two lines from my kernel configuration solved the problem for me. Have you tried that? This would help nailing the problem down, I guess. BTW, I haven't tried with the geforce again, yet -- still running the i740 (which had the problems, too, of course). Some people mentioned that the X11 freezes crawled in shortly before the 5.2 branch; was there some (major?) update to the APIC stuff maybe? (Just guessing wild.) Greetings, Martin
