Hi, I have a problem with random oopses on boot, every 1 out of 5 times I boot linux freezes. I was not able to obtain a call trace, however it happens around 10-15 seconds after boot. I can hear that the tg3 driver is initialised. In this thread, they have the same problem: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=647029 Applying the patch from the thread, makes the problem occurring less often and dmesg shows acpi-button loads for me on hid PNP0C0C and LNXPWRBN.
