My machine finally succumbed...I turned on various Power manager settings such as "System power saving->System sleep mode=Suspend, When inactive 30 minutes." Crashed somewhere after 30 min.entropyfoe wrote: ↑Wed Dec 05, 2018 9:40 pm Paul, I was hoping the 4.19 would no longer require the rcu_nocbs boot parameter.
But alas, MX 18 is stable now one day (without the boot parameter, one day experienced 2 crashes at idle).
Yes I have flashed the BIOS on this board at least 3 times in the early days seeking stability.
Now let me know if you can run stable without the rcu_nocbs grub line.
If the new BIOS fixes it, then we no longer need to mess with this on each install.
I might consider another flash then. My rule, dont't flash if everything works. This is a gray area, it works with some messing about.
Have now added rcu_nocbs=0-7 to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="BOOT_IMAGE=/antiX/vmlinuz quiet rec_nocbs=0-7"
