System crash when calling "full screen command line"

Description
Dear Sirs,
I'm testing the available eCS2.2 BETA II, which has included the Panorama 1.06. We are running HP Elite 8300 machines.
I'm getting crashes in form of a coloured sprangled Monitor together with the system completely hung. It's only possible to switch off power with the system.
The crash is reproducible. It appears, when I switch very soon (within 5 seconds) after booting to an eCS full command prompt. It doesn't appear, if you give the system more time after booting.
It also can be avoided, if PSD=ACPI.PSD /MAXCPU=1 is used.
I reported this already last year in the eCS bugtracker (ticket: 0003501), where Mr. Roderick Klein asked me to wait for the Panorama Version 1.06. But this error is NOT eliminated with this 1.06.
As a workaround I'm forced to use the MAXCPU=1 solution, as my machines have to run certain scripts and programs in fullscreen mode!
With kind regards
Dirk

Dear Sir,
thank you for your response.
Could you please tell me on which "list" this issue is hosted.
So I can have an eye, when and by which Upgrade-software this problem is solved.
With kind regards
Dirk

to my knowledge this issue is fixed with the latest acpi package.
This is a known problem with the video subsystem (not Panorama) that only affects certain hardware. This problem is on the list of things to fix. However, since this is not a problem in Panorama, you cannot expect any future releases of Panorama to have any effect on this problem.
