Hi, I'm getting a lot of bug reports about hanging boot/shutdowns on these days. Most of the affected hardware are ASUS laptops. The problem is that I don't have access to any of those problematic laptops and the users are not able at all to debug/bisect what is going on. However, I have collected dmesgs of good/bad boots, acpidump, etc. Here are the current status: "Asus F50SV does not boot unless lapic is passed" https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26502 "Regression between 2.6.35-020635-rc1 and 2.6.35-020635 breaks acpi support on Asus X71 laptop" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/689796 "Asus N61JQ hangs at shutdown unless lapic is passed" (Not reported upstream yet, I've only downstream bug report which is Turkish) http://bugs.pardus.org.tr/show_bug.cgi?id=15969 "Asus X61S does not boot unless acpi=off is given" (Not reported upstream yet, I've only downstream bug report which is Turkish) http://bugs.pardus.org.tr/show_bug.cgi?id=16322 (I've told the reporter to try with nolapic, it will probably fix the issue but until confirmed acpi=off is the only solution. 2.6.36 was fine) I'll post more bugs in here as I've found them.
(CC'ing: Colin King from Canonical) Another one for Asus N90Sc which was booting fine with 10.04 but fails to boot with 10.10: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/653626 Seen that the issue mostly happens on Asus boxes, it's possible that their firmwares are buggy but they were booting/shutting down correctly until a recent change in kernel. -- Pardus Linux http://www.pardus.org.tr/eng -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
