I am also affected by this. Disabling C1E in BIOS, nolapic_timer or
acpi_skip_timer_override fixes it. I think that acpi_skip_timer_override
has the least negative impact on my system so I am using this.

Yes, pci=nomsi works just as fine as acpi_skip_timer_override.

Hi folks; I'm marking this release notes task as incomplete because this
bug log has records of way too many different issues, some of which have
apparently also been resolved (I see mentions of many different systems,
of freezes versus overheating problems, and of many kernel cmdline
parameters which may or may not help either of these).

I'd highly recommend you split the remaining issues in separate bug
reports and only merge them when they are confirmed to be the same
issue.  Please do reopen release notes tasks if that's still release
notes worthy; thanks!

Before Jaunty I was also able to work around this with a custom DSDT,
although as per the above posts this is now not an option.

You can add Opensuse to the list of those NOT supporting custom dsdt's.
After the patch was committed, one of the Novell kernel devs removed it
again citing Linus's decision to remove all custom dsdt support. If you
only update to 2.6.31-8, you will have dsdt support. This bug has
reappeared in Opensuse 11.3 as well. I have to hold down any key at
random to get it to boot. On the bright side, Opensuse 11.3 has a patch
that fixes the "ACPI Exception: AE_OK, No or invalid critical threshold"
thermal error that was causing my overheating problem. Now my CPU temps
are read correctly.

2010-03-10 Thread Mark Grandi
sergiom99,

Arch Linux does NOT have custom DSDT support, because the kernel itself
dropped support for the patch upstream as it was very 'hackish', and
breaks every two releases or something, and as a result Arch Linux
dropped support for it as well. So, that means that Ubuntu and Arch
Linux and most other distros will not have custom DSDT support , unless
the explicitly add it themselves (you mentioned OpenSUSE did)

I read that the kernel developers would much rather have people submit
kernel.org bug reports saying that their DSDT is faulty and have
fixes/workarounds for buggy DSDTs rather then have support for actually
loading custom DSDT files, as that way, the fix effects a wider number
of people, rather then the very small number who are even aware of the
whole 'buddy DSDT ' problem.

Too bad custom DSDT support has been dropped.
Thats why I cannot move on from JJ.

67GTA confirmed that OpenSUSE has support for it. And as a KDE user, I
am considering moving to Archlinux, since Kubuntu is being treatead as
2nd class.

@Rad3k: does Arch have custom DSDT support?

Thanks guys.

2010-03-10 Thread Rad3k
AFAIK, the newer kernels lack the feature of loading custom DSDTs from
initrd. Now you have to put your DSDT in kernel at compile time. It
means you'll have to recompile your kernel whenever there's an update to
it. Currently that's what I do, but on my laptop I use Arch Linux, and I
don't have any experience in recompiling kernel in Ubuntu, so I can't
provide any specific instructions on how to do that. The basics are here
though: http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/overridingDSDT.php

I believe that for an average user this would be too much of a trouble,
and the recompilation takes some time too, so unfortunately for most
users it's not a solution.

2010-03-10 Thread SRElysian
I feel like a bit of an idiot atm, I left firefox open last night and
this morning my laptop was overheating. After I gave it a reboot and
checked my email someone had messaged me stating that sometime in Karmic
the custom DSDT option was removed, I checked my logs and found that it
seems to be true. How ironic :/ At this poing I am going to try what
Stefan suggests, starting with 2 and going back to 1 if need be.

I guess this teaches me a lesson on not being so lazy, I've had my
laptop occasionally overheat (randomly) after Karmic and thought
something was just working to hard or firefox was being a hog again. I
never thought to check wether or not my DSDT was still active, if I had
I might have commented on this thread earlier, sorry guys. There are a
few bugs I need to look into and report today as well, seeing as how
it's my day off from work I think I will do so.. no more lazy.

I will comment back when I get an actual result, whenever that will be.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2010-03-10 Thread Stefan Bader
Right and because the title here says freezes, so its hard to get the relation
to overheating. Just to note one thing I recently read in a patch description:
apparently there are (at least two hp models iirc) some laptops which claim
working c-states (power saving states of the cpu) than they have working. The
older driver for that had a "bug" (or feature) that it would stop using not
working states (unfortunately the patch description did not exactly say how you
see the brokennes in powertop).
So one thing to try (without a customized DSDT) is to set
"processor.max_cstate=" to either 2 or 1 and see whether that has effect on the
temperature.

2010-03-09 Thread SRElysian
It's actually hard to say at this point. The freezing has disappeared
quite a while ago, but there is another problem which I still
experience, which seems directly related to what caused the freezes in
the first place. This seems to be an issue on certain chipsets not
handling IRQ's properly. I think the reason there's been no posts on
this as of late is because, while the halting issue is gone, the
overheating persists without a custom DSDT file which 67GTA was quite
helpful in assisting quite a few of us with. I don't think people are
aware that the overheating is from the same issue. Perhaps at this point
a new bug should be started or this one renamed? I wouldn't consider the
custom DSDT files to be a "triage" because the are not readily available
through updates and aren't something an average user can conjure up
themselves very easily.

I have been using the custom DSDT file 67GTA assisted me with creating
since the Intrepid release, and still use it now in Lucid Alpha 3
(10.04). And without it, yes, my laptop still overheats, sometimes to
the point where it slows down so much I have to force a shutdown. Good
thing I've been keeping my custom file on a thumb-drive.

This won't get fixed in Intrepid. The question is how to proceed here.
Having passed the 300 comments mark unfortunately does not help either.
What would people think of closing this one and open a new, fresh one
for those having that problem still in Karmic (and specifically test
whether acpi_skip_timer_override helps? Very likely we will have to open
a new upstream bug report as well in that case.

2009-08-31 Thread Stefan Bader
** Description changed:

  Once the Ubuntu splash screen loads with the progress bar that moves back and 
forth, it freezes. Holding down any key unfreezes the system, and it continues 
  loading normally, until I release the key, at which point it freezes again. 
Holding a key down again unfreezes the system again.
  
  Pressing Alt+F1 to show the output also freezes, so I know it isn't just
  the splash screen freezing, but the entire system.
  
  Once X loads, it works perfectly fine though, and I don't have to keep
  holding a key down.
+ 
+ Update 2009/08/31:
+ 
+ The problem behind this seems not limited to a certain controller chip,
+ but related to ACPI BIOS definitions. The IRQ0 override defines to which
+ interrupt number the timer interrupt is supposed to be routed. Most BIOS
+ define a route to IRQ2, so the timer source (hpet in most cases) has to
+ deliver an IRQ2 whenever a timer expires. The problem is, that this is
+ not always correct (either hpet does not use IRQ2 or IRQ2 is not enabled
+ on the chipset). So as soon as all CPUs go into sleep there is no timer
+ irq to wake them up. To solve this automatically one would need
+ documentation about the chipsets pci config space which is often secret.
+ 
+ Workaround for affected systems: Use of "acpi_skip_timer_override" as
+ kernel command line option. Sometimes "nohpet" or "acpi=noirq" have been
+ reported to work, too.
+ 
+ ---
  
  Update : This bug happens with 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 kernels with a computer
  that has Nvidia MCP67 motherboard. A known workaround that sometimes
  works is to add nolapic to GRUB boot kernel options. acpi=noirq is also
  known to work.

2009-07-26 Thread 67GTA
Some small change in the Karmic kernel has made the hanging at boot go
away. The other problems still persist such as overheating and failure
to resume from sleep. A custom DSDT is still needed. Check your dmesg
output.

I've been playing with Karmic for a while now, and so far for me it's boot
on and off battery without requiring a key to be pressed down. However, I
have noticed it occasionally overheats.. but so far it only seems to
overheat if I leave firefox open and close the lid. When I come back after a
few hours it's hot and the fan is blowing in it like mad.

The way we currently stand there won't be need to test because there wont be 
any change. Repeating myself: "In general a fix seems to require a dmesg (with 
"debug apic=debug") and "sudo lspci -vvvnn" and a good documentation on the 
chipset."

The problem with that is, depending on the chipset, there might be no 
documentation. But to decide that, the information above is required.

[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-05-12 Thread Stefan Bader
@67GTA, the compile log seems not to show anything touching the
Processor declarations. Its a bit weird. I wonder whether you see
something noticeably different in powertop (on the C-state usage)
between using that modified DSDT and unmodified with nohpet (but thats
probably more out of curiosity).

@DEFHol, wribeiro, the problem with that sort of thing is that it is
hard to get hold of and likely depends on having certain hardware. The
"idle=poll" is not really desirable because it prevents the cpu from any
idle method which is not doing good on battery life. If neither "nohpet"
nor "acpi_skip_timer_override" work for you, you might give "idle=halt"
a try, but the other two options would probably be better.

In general a fix seems to require a dmesg (with "debug apic=debug") and
"sudo lspci -vvvnn" and a good documentation on the chipset. It
seems it is not the first time HP get the IRQ0 override wrong.

This bug follows me since Ubuntu 8.10 and I survived until now (that's amazing!)
It's better for me live with 'idle=poll' option than try to fix and have my PC

Is there any chance of having this bug fixed in the next version of linux

[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-05-12 Thread DEFHol
Stefan, as wribeiro says, this bug only affects me while on battery
power, not when plugged in. Boot option 'idle=poll' works for me. Now my
system doesn't hang while booting on battery power. I have a Presario
F750US laptop. Thanks for your help.

Here is a copy of my original disassembled DSDT with iasl, and the 1127
optimizations if any of it will help:-) I set iasl to be verbose.

2009-05-11 Thread 67GTA
I just assumed that the _WAK method was for all start ups, and not just
suspend. Your theory makes more sense. The hpet argument works on my
laptop with my custom DSDT removed. (Gets rid of the boot freeze.) The
iasl compiler made the changes you pointed out automatically. I didn't
even notice them.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-05-11 Thread Stefan Bader
@67GTA, To me it feels strange should the _WAK method have any effect there. I 
believe this is called on resume from suspend not when transitioning from a C 
level. What I noticed when comparing the DSDTs you posted was the following:

-Scope (\_PR)
+Scope (_PR)
  {
-Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x1010, 0x06) {}
-Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x1010, 0x06) {}
+Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x, 0x06) {}
+Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x, 0x06) {}
  }

This might relate to processor feature. Unfortunately I do not understand yet 
what the ACPI spec says about this. But if the effect is a change of the C 
states the processor goes, this would explain why this helps. It seems HPET and 
C3 might be an evil combination depending on some hardware.
The background here is that when running a tickless kernel (which we do) then 
it can happen that all CPUs go into a low power state which turns of external 
clocks. The HPET (or the PIT if there is no HPET) is used a trigger to wake the 
CPU(s) again. However if there is anything wrong with the connection, the 
waking interrupt never arrives. So what you do by pressing a key is just 
generating an IRQ and that wakes the CPU.

idle=poll works on my machine. Boot is as fast as Hardy.
Fan speed is now proportionate to CPU temp again and CPU temps are back to 
normal.

Watching the boot process without boot options everything is fine until Setting 
preliminary keyboard.
At that point the keypressing is required.

An odd side effect are the entries in messages:

[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-05-08 Thread 67GTA
Stephan: I will test your method tonight to see if this helps with the
boot freezing. So far the majority of the errors have been system wake
(WAK), and errors in the thermal methods (HOT) and (CRT). A few
(including mine) had errors in the (Q16) method. I'm not sure what it
pertains to. It was only a warning, so I don't think it would cause
freeze. I am wondering if the wake method is causing the trouble. It
doesn't have a valid return value. I wonder if the missing return value
causes the system to lock up while it probes the hardware. It is still
bazaar that holding down a keyboard key resumes boot.

[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-05-08 Thread Stefan Bader
@67GTA, just trying to confirm your changes to the DSDT (its a bit hard to diff 
as there are a lot of optimizations). Basically the major things you changes 
seem to me the return package for the _WAK method, the removal of those two 
Zero statements and (maybe the thing that has most effect to the bug) change 
the processor register block. Is that correct?
I am not sure the reason for the bugs experienced on the HPs is the same as I 
see on one machine here (which is triggered by enabling C1E), but it sounds a 
bit like it might go down to the same root. Somehow most BIOS define an 
override for IRQ0 (the timer) and it seems this often is not correct.
Maybe someone wants to give the following a try:
- If you have a custom DSDT, add "acpi_no_initrd_override" to the boot options. 
This
  should make the kernel ignore that custom DSDT and the hangs should reappear.
- adding "debug apic=debug" add a little more information into the dmesg
- Then try the following combinations:
  * nohpet
  * idle=poll
  * acpi_skip_timer_override
Do any of these make the boot work without a keypress?

I have encountered the same problem on a Sony Vaio PCG-GRT796HP today.
Hardy has no problems at all, Intrepid and Jaunty wont run properly unless a 
key is held down.

I believe this is a problem caused by ACPI/DSDT.aml

Hardy tries to load DSDT.aml from initramfs but fails. Intrepid and
Jaunty succeed in finding DSDT.aml in initramfs, but it seems to be
broken.

I noticed on your post in the ubuntu forums you mentioned acpi_osi="Linux".
Has this been known to work without the custom DSDT or is that required? The
custom DSDT file seems a bit beyond my range of knowledge. :/ This problem
is actually really upsetting, I've noticed my laptop being extremely hot
lately, even when closed and idle.

2009-04-27 Thread Philip Billington
Hi all

I can confirm this bug occurs on the Toshiba Satellite A30 Laptop also.

The bug still exists for me in a fully patched 9.04 installation as of
about 30 minutes ago.

The machine is a P4 Mobile, Intel 82852 Chipset.

As above the problem is resolvable by passing nosmp or nolapic to the kernel. 
I de-compiled the DSDT as per the above instructions and found 3 errors, 10 
warnings reported, compiling a patched DSDT from 
http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/view.php?id=907 with iasl and using that at 
boot also fixes the issue. 

If it will help resolve the bug, I can provide logs of lspci, dmesg etc

If this is believed to be a separate bug due to the
hardware/manufacturer I also happy to raise it separately.

problem is with the Bios vendor/HP. Even if the devs are able to patch

affected by this don't have proper thermal trip points, and get very
warm during normal use. This also keeps a large number of laptops from

Update : This bug happens with 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 kernels with a computer
that has Nvidia MCP67 motherboard. A known workaround that sometimes
works is to add nolapic to GRUB boot kernel options. acpi=noirq is also
known to work.

2009-04-26 Thread 67GTA
TO ALL AFFECTED: I will try to help fix DSDT errors for anyone that can
email me a copy of their dsdt.dat. You can obtain it by following my how
to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036051&highlight=dsdt This
is not to slight the devs, but they can only implement workarounds. The
problem is with the Bios vendor/HP. Even if the devs are able to patch
it, you are still going to have a broken DSDT. Most of the laptops
affected by this don't have proper thermal trip points, and get very
warm during normal use. This also keeps a large number of laptops from
suspending/hibernating. If you want to make the "right" fix, then I will
try to help.

2009-04-26 Thread Taylor Jasko
How are you exactly editing the DSDT? It's a huge file, and what exactly
is causing the problem?

Are these the correct commands to extract the DSDT?

sudo cat /proc/acpi/dsdt > DSDT.dat
iasl -d DSDT.dat # disassemble to create DSDT.dsl


Sorry, but I haven't modified the DSDT before, and I really don't want to try 
to apply one of the edited ones here because they are PC specific.

I'll get Ubuntu installed (actually in Windows 7 right now), and extract
my DSDT for you. :)

Hopefully we'll be able to create a post with all the DSDT fixes. ;)

I'm so glad we're having some progress here!

2009-04-25 Thread Mehall
With much thanks to 67GTA (MUCH much thanks) we now have a working
DSDT.aml for the G6062ea laptop from HP.

download the attatched file, copy it to /etc/initramfs-tools/ and then
run the command

"sudo update-initramfs -u -k kernel-version"

in a terminal substituting "kernel-version" for your actual kernel
version (you can find this from "uname -r") (my command was "sudo
update-initramfs  -u -k 2.6.28-11-generic") You then need to also edit
/boot/grub/menu.lst (that's lower case LST, btw) and put in:

acpi_osi="Linux"

On the kernel line, then save and run "sudo update-grub"
example version:

title Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic
uuid 1c99f655-3e3f-43aa-a9a2-7fb6831c98db
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic

I can't get it to recompile on my end for some reason. It complains that
the dsdt.aml file is missing, but it is only created after
recompiling I may just have to walk you through it on your PC. Grab
a copy of Scott Minster's diff file. Make the first change in the list
to your dsdt.dsl, (External (^Z00G, IntObj) to External (\Z00G, IntObj)
save and run iasl -tc on it again to see if it looks better. The problem
is that even if there is only one wrong character in the file,
everything after it will also be an error. We should probably do this by
email to keep this bug report from getting too long from here on in. If
we get it right, you can post it here for someone else with your model.

Mehall: If you want to send me a copy of dsdt.dat, I will try to use
Scott Minster's diff file to see if I can get your DSDT in a manageable
state. You can send it to me by email through the Ubuntu forums. If you
do get in a non booting state, you can use a live CD to delete the
DSDT.aml file from /etc/initramfs-tools. It will not find it and default
to the original DSDT to boot. You can then run "sudo update-initramfs -u
-k kernel-version" in a terminal to remove the link to the custom DSDT
file to start over.

2009-04-25 Thread 67GTA
That is a seriously broken acpi table! I don't think you could even
begin to fix that. As you fix one error, 50 more will appear because of
the change you just made. The segmentation fault is because of the
maximum 200 error limit of the aml compiler. At that point I guess the
developers decided you should probably just start over. Have a look at
this section:

If (\_OSI ("Linux"))
{
Store (0x03E8, OSYS)
}

If (\_OSI ("Windows 2001"))
{
Store (0x07D1, OSYS)
}

If (\_OSI ("Windows 2001 SP1"))
{
Store (0x07D1, OSYS)
}

If (\_OSI ("Windows 2001 SP2"))
{
Store (0x07D2, OSYS)
}

If (\_OSI ("Windows 2006"))
{
Store (0x07D6, OSYS)

This is supposed to be the supported OS's for your machine. Obviously
your DSDT was compiled by the Microsoft aml compiler instead of Intel's.
If you care to test, try adding the entries above to your kernel line in
/boot/grub/menu.lst. Try acpi_osi="Linux" first to see if any of the
problems your having go away. If not, delete it and try the next,
acpi_osi="Windows 2001", etc... Spelling is critical. Here is mine for
reference:

title   Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic

[Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down

2009-04-25 Thread Scott Minster
The "External (^Z00G, IntObj)" really gave iasl a lot of trouble.
Everything after that first error happened because of it.  I'm not DSDT
expert, but based on my experience fixing my DSDT, I'm attaching a set
of diffs to apply to your DSDT that at least make it compile.  I'm
pretty confident about the diffs other than the "Z00G" ones.  The others
were similar to ones I had to make to my DSDT, and I verified that the
_HOT and _CRT changes make sense mathematically (it takes 95, multiplies
it by 10 and adds 2732 to return a temperature in Kelvin times 10).

The Z00G changes are completely foreign to me.  I made a guess based on
the surrounding code, and the compiler seemed OK with it.  I have no
idea if it is correct, just that it compiles.  Maybe someone
knowledgeable in DSDT knows if my suggestion is correct or not.
