[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
Got the same problem on all my sun v20z with upgradung from 8.04 to 11.04. powernow used to work with 8.04, with 11.04 it does not, the fans are running full speed. Kernel option noacpi did not change anything. The BIOS has no option to set something related to ACPI and no updates are available. acpidump on both versions are identical. powernowd is no more available, cpufreq complains No cpufreq supprt. For me, this is a showstopper, i probably have to replace all hardware. This is very disappointing: ubuntu folks and kernel folks keep blaming the BIOS - but Windows can do it on the same hardware .. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364156 Title: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/364156/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
@Pyoverdine: You should look in your BIOS at the CPU setting for something called Cool 'n' Quit, Dynamic Clock or Frequency Scaling that should be Enabled. Do not use Auto, because that may only work on Windows. If you you cannot find such an option, you may have an option AM2 Boost instead, please disable that (only if there is no C 'n' Q option)... Your BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in a way that Linux understands almost always means that Cool 'n' Quiet has been disabled in the BIOS. This kernel message also isn't really an error, it just tells that the kernel will not use CPUFREQ powernow-k8 support because Cool 'n Quiet has been disabled, so it's doing exactly what is requested. Please verify that C 'n' Q has indeed been disabled in the BIOS, and then determine what you want. If you don't want Cool 'n' Quiet you can ignore this message (powernow-k8 has been built-in in the kernel so you cannot prevent this message from being displayed). -- powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
I see this problem on all 6 AMD machines I work with on a regular basis. CPU frequency scaling is disabled. Most of these machines have the log message [Firmware Bug]: powernow-k8: No compatible ACPI _PSS objects found. These machines are configured with motherboards from various vendors using various AMD / NVIDIA chipsets. The common factor is the K8 / K10 cpu architecture and the Linux kernel (2.6.28 and .31 possibly earlier as well). The problem is most acute on the recently released IBM thinkpad edge notebook which boots both Window7 and Ubuntu 10.04. In windows it appears to run at a much lower temperature. Based on this observation I assume frequency scaling is working in Windows so it is hard to understand how the lack of frequency scaling in Ubuntu could be a BIOS bug. Given the pervasiveness of the problem in Linux and the observation that Windows seems to scale CPU frequency, isn't this problem more likely to be a Linux kernel issue. Or does windows somehow workaround the BIOS bug. If so perhaps there is workaround that could be applied in the linux kernel. more attachments to follow ** Attachment added: acpidump.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38553264/acpidump.txt -- powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
Update: SUCCESS!!! Woohooo, as a beginner in Ubuntu I am quite proud. :) Here is my understanding of this topic (please take it with reserve, I am only a beginner). 9.04 is generating the bug powernow-k8 acpi_pss and it clearly says so because it kicks you into busybox and the bug report is on the screen. 9.10 live cd or booting into an installation was restarting my PC just when it should show the login screen. I wrongly assumed that it is the same bug only that the busybox is not showing. To make further tests, I downloaded Kubuntu 9.10 and the live environment was running just fine. I installed it and it worked fine. But I really wanted Ubuntu so I didn't settle for that. I asked myself, since the core files are the same, why would Kubuntu work and Ubuntu reboot the PC. Seems like a different problem than the BIOS, that would affect both. How about the video driver? I googled how to install a driver under recovery mode, did that, and it worked. Ubuntu is booting up, showing the login screen and working normally. It seems the driver distributed with the package reboots some video cards/chips. My suggestion for anyone having the acpi_pss bug or Ubuntu rebooting the PC: 1. Forget 9.04 and download 9.10. ACPI_PSS seems to be fixed there. 2. If trying the live environment of 9.10 reboots the PC, don't worry. Just select Install and go trough the whole process. 3. The first reboot after install if you select Ubuntu (normal mode) it will most probably again reboot the PC just before it shows the login screen. 4. Next time go into Ubuntu (recovery mode). When presented with the first options screen select root with networking to have internet access. 5. Install EnvyNG with: sudo apt-get install envyng-core envyng-qt 6. You can run EnvyNG in text mode with: envyng -t 7. Select to install ATI or Nvidia driver as needed (I have ATI maybe this issue doesn't exist on Nvidia). 8. After the install is complete it will offer to reboot, select the Ubuntu (normal mode) and you should be fine. This worked for me and I am very happy now. To the Ubuntu team: Maybe this is not correct procedure but in case you want to investigate why 9.10 was rebooting my PC here is some info: - motherboard Gigabyte MA78G-DS3H ver1.0 with AMD 780G northbridge, Radeon HD3200 integrated - I wrote down the driver package that EnvyNG installed: 8.660-0ubuntu4 - With that driver it works fine, the driver inside the Ubuntu image seems to reboot with HD3200 Sorry for the long post, I hope I could help. Cheers.

Hello. I have the same problem ACPI_PSS bug is not letting me run live environment or installation of 9.10 or 9.04. I downloaded 8.04 LTS just to test and that runs fine. I'm new to both Ubuntu and bug reporting, should I just report here or open new report with my motherboard model? In case you want to know, it is Gigabyte MA78G-DS3H, ver1.0. Factory BIOS was F3 and the error was present there. I updated to latest F8 and the error is still there. The error appears with both CoolQuiet enabled (default) or disabled. Also, the error is still there even if I edit (with TAB) the command line of the Try Ubuntu option adding at the end acpi=off noacpi. I saw that alternative in another post but doesn't help for me. So as far as it looks to me, I have two options: not install Ubuntu at all, or settle for 8.04. But I really want 9.10. Any chance of this bug being solved? If you need more info just ask for but consider the following: 1. I'm new to Ubuntu so you would need to provide steps (not too detailed, I can find my way around) 2. I do not have a running 9.10 or 9.04 system due to the error above so don't know how would I provide logs/files from it.

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
Pyoverdine, that description sounds like it is a problem (though I must admit that I do not completely understand the description). That the fan is running during normal operation is very likely something that is related to the powernow module being unable to load. As the CPUs run at full speed all the time they generate more heat. Unfortunately this can only be solved by a correct BIOS (or in some cases the right BIOS settings). For this reason I would close this bug as won't fix. I would suggest, however, that you open a new bug for the suspend/resume problem. There is a wiki page that hopefully explains how to obtain more debugging information. You can find it at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspendHibernateResume Reading over your last comment again, it might be that this is related to CPU temperature getting too high. You could verify this by monitoring your cpu temperature. Unfortunately there is no standard way to do this. Maybe acpi -t reports it or the sensors command from lm-sensors. You would need to experiment a bit. Anyways, if that is the problem, then you should open another bug as well. But it is always better to have one bug for one specific problem.

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
If one is hibernate, the other likely is suspend (google translate thinks pause, so I guess I am close ;)) But I believe all this is not related to that module message. The module itself is used for cpu powersaving issues (frequency scaling). So the effects are that your CPU's run at full speed all the time. I once had another computer where I had to enable an option in the bios to get this). The reboot issue might be solved with reboot=b or reboot=a either on the grub command line or in /boot/grub/menu.lst The suspend/hibernate problem would be another case and will need more information (does the computer go into suspend or hibernate, does the fan stop and the machine seems off or does it have problems there?). But I wonder whether this would be better reported as a new bug with a better matching description.

[Bug 364156] Re: powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands
So what happens here is, that the ACPI BIOS does not show any Methods that would be required to enable power management and the PSB BIOS structure, which would be an alternative, is only valid on a single CPU system. The big question: apart from those error messages, is there anything different? Did you have frequency scaling before and this is now gone?

The bug is was incomplete as there is information missing. As the message indicates your bios provides information in a way that Linux cannot understand (or it provides nothing). So if this issue still exists: 1. Is there a newer BIOS for the motherboard / computer? If, yes, you should try this. 2. If no, run the following two commands and attach the resulting text files: - 'sudo acpidump -o acpidump.txt' - 'sudo dmidecode dmidecode.txt' ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Stefan Bader (stefan-bader-canonical) -- powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Laurent: I think this should not depend on whether it's 64 or 32 bit, but rather on the motherboard BIOS. And we have different BIOS.

I reported upstream yesterday: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13146 I think it would be helpful to have some more info, like the specs for the correct way of defining the _PSS.
