Hello,
I upgraded recently my very old ASUS-P5A-based system (AMD-K6-II,
350MHz) to (a little newer) ASUS A7V133-based system (AMD Athlon 1400).
I have the problem that switching the X-resolution (I usually work
with 1280x1024, but for watching fullscreen TV, 800x600 is needed),
the system tends to freeze. I made already various experiments:
. Trying kernel 2.6.4/2.6.7, switching back to 2.4.27.
. Rearrange the TV-card in the PCI-slot, so that the
Graphics-Card (Matrox G200-AGP) and TV-card (Pinnacle
Studio PcTv, Bt848 based) do not share the same
interrupt any more.
. Taking all PCI-Cards out (except TV and graphics card ;-)
Trying to reproduce the problem, I found out that when
the TV-Window is small, the freeze does almost never
occur. When the TV-Window is larger, the freeze occurs
after two or three Resolution Switches (Ctrl-Alt-Keypad+),
so it could be related to heavy PCI-Bus-Load.
However, on the old Machine with the same Graphics-Card
and same TV-Card, I never had this problem.
I would appreciate any hint getting me closer to a solution...
Should I play around with the X-Configuration ?
Nicolas
