[Bug 271070] Re: "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." message when booting
I agree with Zemir. My box never did do well with Intrepid. Turns out, my ACPI is partially non-functional including the temp sensor array. I ended up grabbing the temps directly from the junctions to keep things cool in Hardy. Couldn't get anywhere with it using Intrepid. Jaunty must have a much better detection as it had no problems telling what kind of hardware I have. As for the temps in Jaunty, all I had to do was pull up the temperature icon and switch the input method for gathering temperature and the fans kicked in. I have found some hickups in Jaunty, but they are far fewer and less hair pulling than Intrepid. Although, it is give and take as to whether Jaunty runs better than Hardy.

Please forgive my complete stupidity. Nearly everything I've posted has been taken care of. Please read on. Number one, the boot script, "Aperture beyond 4gb. Ignoring." is simply describing a function which is being implemented during boot. As for most of the rest of the difficulties I've been experiencing have stemmed from install. At install, all of the eye candy was turned on by default. I have turned them off, and am now running with great stability = satisfaction baby! The eye candy was easily changed under "System Setting --> Desktop --> Desktop Effects" Since doing that, I've not even had a single icon disappear. I'm sure the rest of the little hickupy things will follow with future updates. Again, I surely do apologise for all of anybody else's time that I've wasted. (Really kickin' myself in the bootay so that you don't have to.) If there is a way to strike all of my posts, the web-masters definitely have my permission, as it is quite embarrassing to have so much ignorance coming from one person.

[Bug 271070] Re: "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." message when booting
Well, I've asked permission to print my brother's specs and am waiting for a reply, but here is what I've done. I've re-installed Intrepid again, and have taken notes the whole way. First off, the JJ.zip file attached has a bunch of entries. Most of them have this same command set: uname -a dmesg sudo lspci -vvnn Break-- My computer specs are: AMD Phenom 9500 quad-core processor that runs at 2.2Ghz on a MCP61PM-GM AM2 Motherboard made by ECS, 3GB RAM that is rated 667Mhz, a 500GB SATA II hard drive, it has NVidia 6150 onboard video GPU clocked at 400Mhz however I have installed an NVidia 7600GS "GO" PCIe x16 card with a GPU clocked at 560 Mhz and 512MB RAM clocked at 400Mhz, and it has a generic DVD RW w/ LabelFlash. If more detail is needed, I'll get it if I can. End Break-- Now, back to the zipped text files attached. The first one I put together is called "myhardwareishardy.txt", and that one gives the run down on the Hardy installation. The second file is "myhardwareisintrepidpreupdate.txt" which was written right after the re-boot which was done right after the Intrepid installation, and before I did any updates. The third file is "myhardwareisintrepidpostupdate.txt" which was written right after the reboot from the update. After rebooting from the first update, I lost internet connection. I did some simple checking to make sure the LAN was up (it was). I tried connecting a USB/Ethernet Device but still no connection. I then powered completely down (hard boot, not soft) then brought the system back up with the USB Device still attached. When the system came up, the KNetworkManager icon was missing and the USB Device was working (not the onboard Ethernet). I installed the NVidia Driver 177.xx and did a reboot. The onboard Ethernet started working again, so I removed the USB Device, still no KNetworManager Icon. The fourth file is "KMixcrashNVidiaInstall.txt" and it was taken from a crash report window that came up during the NVidia Driver install. The KMix manager was still operational and the startup/shutdown audio clips never failed. (Funny thing about that, every time I boot up the intro seems to be snubbed, does that happen to anybody else?) I installed the KDE Official suite then did a reboot. The KNetworkManager Icon has come back. I installed the repository for Medibuntu, and installed Firefox with its counterparts and the KUbuntu Extras. I grabbed Adobe Flash 10 but did not yet install. I rebooted first to make sure the prior two groups had made everything complete. After rebooting, the GUI froze, so I got a reading and the fifth file is called "guifreeze.txt". I then finished the Adobe install from prompt and rebooted again to clean the slate (and get the GUI back). After thought, perhaps I should have tried using the "/etc/init.d/kdm stop and start" to see what would happen. After rebooting, I went to an online game that I would like to see working properly, "RuneScape", and sure enough, I have to keep wiggling the mouse over the frame to keep it running. It's like having a hand crank for your monitor, lol. After having tried the game, I made the last file, "myhardwareisintrepidwhendone.txt". I didn't lose the Desktop panel this round, but some of the other icons in the bottom panel did lose part or all of their picture (some were partially overlapped as well). Wholly Smokes, I think I've written a novel. Oh well, I hope this helps the developers in looking for bugs to eradicate. If there is any more you would like me to do, let me know. Turn circles, sit on my hands, hire a technician (don't think so), get some sleep ( Ooh, that one sounds good!! ). Good night, and good luck. Melondrift 8-) P.S. My humor goes somewhat awry when I've been awake this long. ** Attachment added: "Diary of a Mad Somethingerother" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20414871/jovialjaguar.zip -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.

[Bug 271070] Re: "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." message when booting
I have a gateway GT5674, it has an AMD 9500 Quad 2.2Ghz processor, onboard NVidia 6150SE (I've installed NVidia 7600GS 512M PCIe card hoping it would fix problems with Intrepid, nope, same problems exist with both), 3Gigs Ram. I've since wiped Intrepid from my computer and am using the Hardy 64Bit install with ZERO problems. Intrepid was giving me the same message during boot, "aperture beyond 4G... ignoring". Using the Vesa driver, it would boot, but about 50% of the time I would have to jog the screen size to get the GUI to show up (by pressing the "ctrl-alt-[+or-]" keys). The Desktop panel, widgets, icons and control panel would intermittently discolor, disappear and/or become unfunctional. Video was very glitchy, and online games would freeze unless I kept moving the mouse pointer over the frame making real-time play exasperating. Installing the proprietary video driver (I've tried using the 173.xx and 177.xx NVidia drivers) helps somewhat (I no longer had to jog the screen size to see the GUI), but only delays the inevitable. My youngest brother is a fan of Microsoft, and while visiting last week he had a good laugh when I went to look something up for him, and lost control of the computer before the web browser had time to load (my computer was already on, so no, I wasn't speed clicking my way to the internet). I've been through a plethera of forums on this subject, and nobody really seems to know what the problem/problems are. I've tried several things, like messing with Xorg.conf, installing different software packages and the like, but if any of that did help, it wasn't enough to really notice. Intrepid is a beautiful operating system, and I wish like crazy that I could use it on my computer. Until the bugs are fixed, I'll just use the Hardy. Hardy even seems to load, run and do things faster, if that makes any sense. If there is somebody who wishes me to re-install Intreped again to grab specs and code for comparison, I will. Perhaps there is something there that could help. Just let me know what to do, and I'll do it. Please remember though, I have only been using Linux for a little over 2 years, so I'm still quite noobish at it. Funny thing, my older brother is running Intrepid on his machine, and he says that he doesn't have any issues whatsoever with his install. Bizarre 8-P (Yes, I use the MD5Sum to check the integrity of all .iso images before committing them to disk.) I have nearly a dozen successful Linux installs covering a variety of hardware, so I'm not completely Linux illiterate (I am kinda dissed still that the guys pulled the repositories for Feisty, 'cause I have an old frame that runs best on Feisty. Well, that's another story all-together, isn't it.) I'll get the complete hardware specs for my brothers and my computer and post them, perhaps something will jump out.

Could those of you who claim that they cannot boot please try booting without "splash" and "quiet" to make the messages on the screen more verbose. This may give a better indication where the boot fails. There are lots of people experiencing the "Aperture beyond 4GB" message with no other side effects, so perhaps other people are experiencing a different bug. And paulderol - your problem with memory being ignored is almost certainly not related to this bug. It is either a hardware problem or a separate bug. Please open a new bug report.

I think, that Hardy is much stable and much better than Intrepid. 8.10 have too much bugs and this is not good. A month is passed, but this bug (271070) is still not fixed. I made many attempts to resolve this problem on my system, but without success. Because of that I will back to hardy. I will upgrade to intrepid when this bug will be fixed. -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.

[Bug 271070] Re: "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." message when booting
When I was using Ubuntu 7.04 and then 8.04 x64, I never got any error messages what so ever. In fact, I would say Ubuntu 8.04 x64 is the most OS I've ever used, and have been in love with it. Recently, I first tried to do an upgrade install from 8.04 x64 to 8.10 x64 using the update system and it would download files. The install was successful, but started getting the "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." error message, but also I/O error messages when seemed to be mostly about USB devices. I also noticed 8.10 didn't boot as quickly as 8.04. I then did a clean [w/formatting partitions] install of 8.04 x64 LTS using a CD I got from ubuntu directly, and did a upgrade install from that w/out installing any programs. Same thing happened. I then downloaded the ISO file for Ubuntu 8.10 x64 from ubuntu.com, checked md5sum, and tried clean install with it. Same thing happened. Oddly, after then clean upgrade install, the Aperture error message at boot then said it wasn't big enough, but I don't remember the exact message. The I/O error messages I would get after 'aperture beyond 4gb, ignoring', I didn't document them, and don't remember the nature of them, but I was getting multiple I/O errors, which seemed to be mostly about USB devices. I gave up, and re-installed 8.04 x64 LTS from CD and continued using it. Didn't get any error messages at all from there. More recently, I discovered Ultimate Edition 2.0 of Ubuntu x64 @ http://ultimateedition.info/ [a couple days later]; and decided to try 8.10 again. I burnt a blank DVD after verifying the md5sum of DVD ISO file I downloaded for Ultimate Edition Ubuntu 2.0 x64 which is based off of Ubuntu 8.10 x64. I also updated my BIOS from v13 to v16 for my abit AN-52 motherboard. The BIOS update didn't seem to help. However, one of the I/O error messages I noticed when booting was a message something to the effect of: "failed to enumerate usb device". So I disconnected the USB external IDE seagate HDD I use for backups. After disconnected the USB EXT HDD, and updating the BIOS, I no longer got any I/O error messages or USB error messages. What's odd about that, is I never have the EXT HDD powered on, only when I use it for backups from time to time; otherwise, it's always powered off. So, after BIOS update and disconnect of EXT HDD, I installed Ultimate Ubuntu 2.0 x64 w/out error, just as I had done with Ubuntu 8.10; but Ultimate Edition 2.0 x64 seems to be at nearly the same speed as 8.04 did. However, Ultimate Edition was installed after the BIOS update, where my prior attempts at installing 8.10 x64 were before I updated the BIOS. In any event, I still get the "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." error message at boot, but at no time has that error seemed to prevent or hang boot, or OS once logged in. The only BIOS setting that seems to have any relevance, is that the setting for "PCI-E relative items: [is set @=] maximum TLP payload size: "4096"..." I have attached a text file with a lot of system info in it. Overall, the BIOS update didn't seem to help much, but I never got any errors w/ 8.04 x64, and could leave my USB 2.0 EXT HDD plugged in, and not powered on, w/out any errors. I haven't tested it yet once booted up in 8.10, but will. Hope it helps.

There is a huge number of people that seem to be having different problems with intrepid, and multi-core amd64. I have an Asus M3N78-VM motherboard with 4GB RAM and integrated NVIDIA 8200 GPU and dual-core AMD 6000. I get the following message when booting with Intrepid with every kernel I've tried (2.6.27-4 - 2.6.27-10) [ 0.004000] Aperture pointing to e820 RAM. Ignoring. [ 0.004000] Your BIOS doesn't leave a aperture memory hole [ 0.004000] Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup [ 0.004000] This costs you 64 MB of RAM I get rid of the message, and find the my system is most stable when I boot with iommu=noaperture,memaper=3 However, I reliably get system freezes (blank screen, solid colour), especially when using networking (Atheros wifi chipset, with ath9k driver). The system is solid, even with the accelerated NVIDIA drivers, if I use only a single core (obviously not desirable), by booting with "maxcpus=1" This freezing I experience is UNRELATED to aperture issue I was able to prove this on my system by limiting the memory to less that 4GB and disabling iommu and any aperture and I'd still get system freezes (which could be eliminated with maxcpus=1) (In fact some of you may want to try that my understanding is that iommu and the aperture is only required for memory >= 4GB... so disable it and try limiting your memory in grub) For those experiencing the booting problem above, I suggest you try booting 1) with "iommu=noaperture,memaper=3" 2) with "maxcpus=1" 3) with both "iommu=noaperture,memaper=3 maxcpus=1" and report here if it makes any difference. -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.

rawdmon, I have read through that bug a few times, and at least for me, there are a couple key differences.

I would like to point out that the people complaining about hanging should refer to the following bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/272247 I have confirmed that the aperture message was present in the old 2.6.24-21 kernel as well.

I'm fairly new to Ubuntu. I read bug report 272247 recommended above by nitto. With my limited understanding of Ubuntu, I didn't see any mention of the problem reported on this tread vs that one. The only similarity is that they are reporting also systems freezing on boot up. Some people are able to boot by adding "hpet=disabled". I don't know where to add this parameter. Can someone please explain where can I add that to test it? I don't know enough about the software to look at the log files (don't know which ones and where) to understand what is causing my system to stop booting. lirel - I looked at your provided links. I could try attaching the recommended log files however, I can only boot into kernel 2.6.24-21. I will think the log files will record a normal boot into that kernel and not the one I can't boot into. Maybe I'm wrong. Please let me know and I will try to post those files if you think it will help to trouble shoot this problem. I don't think this is a simple issue otherwise they wouldn't be so many people complaining on this tread. Also keep in mind a lot of folks, like me, are new to Ubuntu and don't have the technical expertise to trouble shoot or to report the bug in the appropriate place and with the right information.

lirel, I beg to differ. I have a feeling the people who simply see the error message, and the people who's systems completely hang are likely being affected by the same bug. The difference is the severity of how it affects individual machines, not the bug itself. As I stated, I have 2 machines, both report the error, one boots, one won't. I doubt it's 2 different bugs affecting them. My machine that won't boot is during a fresh install, so I don't have the "luxury" of simply selecting an older kernel and going on. -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.

I had the same problem when trying to install the Kubuntu 8.10 x86-64 distribution. The installer (image burned on a cd) opens the language dialog, after selecting the language the "[0.004000] Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." appears on screen and the installation seems to hang.

I get a similar error when loading up since upgrading to Intrepid from Hardy (goes by a little fast for me to read mind). Checking /var/log/messages it looks similar though: Checking aperture...

The main reason I'm posting is that I noticed this bug under Hardy: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/203537 This related to the Suspend option ruining the ext3 file system on AMD64 systems. Pretty scary stuff. Now I do recall that the error on bootup made reference to GART IOMMU. In the other bug, it notes that "the kernel option "iommu=soft" fixes this problem". My question is, are the two bugs related? In other words, in order to resolve the (admittedly very worrying) filesystem corruption bug, does Intrepid ship with 'safe' GART IOMMU kernel options? -- "Aperture beyond 4GB.
