Hi, I had to get a new laptop because my last one had a hinge issue. After installing Fedora 19 onto this laptop, When clicking Fedora 19 from grub I get a message saying: irq 9: nobody cared(try booting with the "irqpoll" option) It stays for about 5 seconds then Fedora boots normally. Its more of an annoyance then anything since its not hindering startup. Is there any way to fix this?
Not really. IRQ9 is the cascade for IRQ2, which was used mostly for COM3 or COM4 back in the day. It's most often used now for ACPI operations. If you're getting that message, make sure the various ACPI options are enabled in your BIOS (these are the things affecting the power usage...ACPI = "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface"). The system polls the various IRQs to see if a device responds on them. If not, you get the "nobody cared" message (no hardware was using that IRQ) and life goes on. On my machines, I generally see stuff like this in dmesg regarding IRQ 9: [ 0.000000] ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus 0 bus_irq 9 global_irq 9 high level) Your mileage may vary. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - "Celibacy is not hereditary." - - -- Guy Goden - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
