Hi Paul!
Boy, I was thinking 'Kernel Patch' when I said kernel fix, all along
with recompiling kernels and testing and hoping it will go with all the
other patches I need and hoping it will get included soon and so on and
so forth; while I would rather be producing music.
And then you came up and brought up 'Kernel Parameter'. That's just
beautiful.
If there exists a kernel parameter that will solve this issue you can
bet that I will find it, if I have to learn every line of the linux
kernel by heart... IN BINARY MACHINE CODE.
nohlt [BUGS=ARM]
no-hlt [BUGS=IA-32] Tells the kernel that the hlt
instruction doesn't work correctly and not to
use it.
nohalt [IA-64] Tells the kernel not to use the power
I tried nohlt and no-hlt but they didn't have any effect on the noise. I
did a "grep -r nohlt /proc" and it mentioned something about a nohlt, so
I would assume I made no mistakes in configuring grub properly.
Thanks again, Paul, this is great.
