Compiling TuxOnIce 3.5-rc7 with that patch now to verify if that fix work 
there, too. TuxOnIce is still so much faster than in-kernel-suspend ;).


I still get:

Message from syslogd@merkaba at Jul 16 18:53:53 ...
 kernel:[   42.442466] Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 3c on CPU 0.

Message from syslogd@merkaba at Jul 16 18:53:53 ...
 kernel:[   42.442470] Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?

Message from syslogd@merkaba at Jul 16 18:53:53 ...
 kernel:[   42.442472] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue

but I keep getting these since quite some time and did not take the time 
to follow up on it.

Thanks,
