Toshiba Satellite A205 with Mint 10 gnome 32.
When I boot the system cold, that is , first thing in thing in the morning, the system locks with a blank screen before the splash kicks in; keyboard is totally unresponsive, need to hold power button 5 secs and restart. After second reboot in recovery mode, system will hang again at login or shortly after a successful login. On 3d time perhaps, system successfully boots and thereafter functions all day no problems
when i resume from sleep, same thing if sleep is for extended period (more than half hour? not sure)
I don't see any particular errors in the logs.
It seems like the cpu needs to literrally "warm up" to a certain temp before it will work properly. Is that possible? Suggestions? Hold at grub screen for 10 min first boot of the day?

Re: System Freeze booting or resuming when laptop cold
Was having the same problem with my Toshiba a205 s4607 satellite-
Solved, I think;
modifed grub, adding "acpi_skip_timer_override" as follows:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_skip_timer_override"
no more interrupts on boot, no more freezes after periods of inactivity, no problems resuming from sleep/hibernate, no more stalls downloading large files;
took me a long time to find this workaround !
