           Summary: random freeze unless acpi=off
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6.28-10
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: acpi_ot...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: mprosi...@volny.cz


Latest working kernel version: no
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.25.5 but probably even erlier
Distribution: OpenSuse11
Hardware Environment: NB Clevo M570TU
Software Environment:
Problem Description: System randomly freeze (no HD activity, "screenshot" on
the screen ...)

Steps to reproduce: run any linux

/***************************************************************************/
Details:

It starts freezing 1 month after OpenSuse 11 instalation without any reason (no
HW or SW upgrade).
ACPI related cos works with acpi=off

System: 

"VisionBook M570TU" it is "Clevo M570TU"
C2D T9400
2*2GB DDRIII
320GB/7200
GF9800GT

Linux OpenSuse 11 64bit

kernel 2.6.28-10
last bios 1.00.10

Basic facts:
Before the first freeze I had been using the linux sytem for 1 month on this NB
without any single freeze.
Now it freeze in aprox. 45 minutes after start. But there were also few seconds
and 7 hours extremes.
It freeze with nvidia, nv driver or without graphics.
Starts freezing with no reson known to me. (I used backup I had from the date
when it was OK but it also freezed)
I also have Vista 32b (preinstaled) and XP on the NB. XP have been freezing
from the very first momemt but Vista is OK.
This NB certainly have some ACPI isues. I can not use sleep mode, can change
brightness only with "acpi_osi=" kernel parameter and DSDT is not perfect ....
The only way I can run the NB for unlimited time is to use acpi=off or acpi=ht
(with these par. my mouse becames a "slow motion mouse", touchpad works fine)
Tried also with other distribution (Mandriva live CD) which freeze the same way
- so it is not distribution related.

I have tried:

I have tried every combination of kernel boot parameters, but only acpi=of
helps.


The message 

<6>i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.3: PCI INT C -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
<4>ACPI: I/O resource 0000:00:1f.3 [0x1c00-0x1c1f] conflicts with ACPI region
SMBI [0x1c00-0x1c0f]
<6>ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver


in my boot.msg looked promising, but after I got rid of it with
"acpi_enforse_resources=strict" which produced this:

<6>i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.3: PCI INT C -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
<3>ACPI: I/O resource 0000:00:1f.3 [0x1c00-0x1c1f] conflicts with ACPI region
SMBI [0x1c00-0x1c0f]
<6>ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver
<4>i801_smbus: probe of 0000:00:1f.3 failed with error -16

the system keep freezing.

Probably the messages "SMART Usage Attribute: 194 Temperature_Celsius changed
from 103 to 101" are also related to this - I have hothing so hot in the NB.


I ran linuxfirmwarekit with bad results: SUMMARY:  5 Fails, 4 Warns, 11 Pass,
20 Total
See linuxfirmwarekit.txt for details. Among others the DSDT is buggy but I
think the errors are not dengerous. I put

Store("ErrorMartin!!! - Method ATIF", Debug)
Sleep(2000)

to the control path that do not return and it seems that system never reach
that point.

I don't know how much are the other errors and warnings dangerous.


A also turned on ACPI debuging mesages and kept writing dmesg output every 0.1s
(see last 1000 lines in dmesg.ACPIdebug.txt ) but either I have missed some
error/warning or there was no.

After many days of testing I have reached the point when I have no other idea
on what is the couse of this behaviour. So any idea will be greatly
appreciated.
