--- Comment #6 from ArTourter artourter@gmail.com 2012-03-27 00:31:37 --- I have had the same problem with the 3.2 series on Slackware64 (I haven't tried 3.3) Lenovo T520 laptop Intel i7 2720QM CPU Nvidia NVS 4200M
but I am not using the nouveau driver, but the proprietary nvidia driver which I think hasn't got the time to get loaded before the system freezes.
I have tried booting with both nouveau and nvidia blacklisted in console mode and still get the same behaviour.
As mention in comment #4, acpi=off noapic allows normal boot but it is really not practical on a laptop.
3.1.2 works fine (I haven't tried the more recent versions of the 3.1.x series).
