linux$ uname -a Linux oregano 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux There are no particular kernel options, I think. Only root=..., ro, and quiet. > Ubuntu users [0] > solved a similar Problem by using the pnpacpi=off kernel option. > > [0] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/184725 Ok, from the Grub menu I typed 'e' to edit the boot command. In the kernel line I added 'pnpacpi=off' after the 'root=...' option and before the 'ro quiet' option, separated with spaces. I then typed 'b' to boot. The first time it did not work but hung after 'Setting the system clock.' The second time it booted, but it didn't solve the problem. 'alsaconf' does not work properly and there is still no sound card in /proc/asound/cards. First remark: Isn't the option 'pnpacpi=off' option similar to turning PnP off in the BIOS menu, as I tried earlier and it didn't work. That would be consistent. Second remark: Even with 'pnpacpi=off' there was a 'Starting ACPI Services.' in the boot sequence and an 'acpid stopped' (or something similar) at the very end of the shut down. I don'T know whether that means that the 'pnpacpi=off' didn't work for some reason. > > Else please check your mixer settings. Is master or pcm mutet? I don't know how to check that. amixer and alsamixer wouldn't even start. Thanks a lot for your feedback and sorry for the delayed responses from my side. I have access to this laptop only occasionally, since it is not mine but one of a friend and I have installed Linux for her.
