Summary: ACPI Hangs on Boot
Product: ACPI
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.23.12
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Other
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: NA on this hardware
Distribution: LinuxMint 4.0
Hardware Environment: Acer 4520 (all stock)
Software Environment: Dual-Boot with Vista
Problem Description: Kernel hangs on boot at:
ACPI: EC: GPE = 0x10, I/O: command/status = 0x66, data = 0x62
Steps to reproduce:
I custom compiled the kernel to solve another ACPI issue which I may file a bug
report for later. I will try with apci=off momentarily.
Oddly enough, when the power button is pressed, the kernel resumes booting and
runs as normal!
acpi=off results in a kernel panic telling me to run with noapic, running with
noapic results in it telling me that I need to run with pnpbios=off.
Finally, if I boot with "acpi=off noapic pnpbios=off" it hangs at loading my
DVD-ROM, after about 5 minutes it will give an error dealing with a lack of a
root file system, (no /dev/sda5).
This is the latest kernel, so this should be fixed, unless I did something
stupid compiling it, then I should be fixed. :-P
Regardless, there have been similar errors on the two stock kernels that
shipped with LinuxMint, the 2.6.22.14-generic fails to boot entirely (power
button trick doesn't work) and 2.6.22.14-386 works with power button trick,
albeit at a different point in the boot sequence.
Thanks,
Dan O.
