Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
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. -- System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272247 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

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

Same issue here, unfortunately. My laptop is plugged in 99% of the time, and is almost always plugged in while booting. After reading this email, I unplugged it, and rebooted. The issue is still there for me when running on battery power. There's a good chance that this was never fixed properly, as this was the first time that I rebooted on battery power since reporting that it was fixed for me. I didn't have the problem with the system locking up as noted below, once booted everything works fine. SRElysian wrote: I just noticed something I haven't before.. I may have previously stated that the new kernels being used in Jaunty fix the issue, but for the first time in a very long time I booted my laptop via battery instead of the power cord and it went back to it's same old shenanigans. I was forced to use the shift key to boot the system, then it locked up (though later I found the lockup was due to a custom setting I was using for my Intuos3 tablet, while the tablet was not connected). I think I will look into this custom DSDT file and see if it resolves the issue for Jaunty as well. This is quite upsetting though, if what 67GTA says is true, this problem is not going to go away for a while.

To extract the DSDT, name it usefully, and compress it:
sudo apt-get install dmidecode

sudo cat /proc/acpi/dsdt | cat - ${MODEL}-${BIOS_VERSION}-ORIGINAL.aml

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
If i am not mistaken, the Jaunty alpha series boots from the 2.6.27 kernel series with the problem on install. What actually fixes the problem is the 2.6.28 kernel you can update to. If it doesn't show up in the normal updates, try checking pre-release or unsupported. If people are getting this to work fully feedback would probably be a good idea. As I stated in a previous post, I tried out the new jaunty, and while the 2.6.28 series kernel did fix the boot problem, I experienced erratic behavior with the mousekeyboard. It would act as if keys were being held down and actually would randomly paste things into windows and chats as I was typing, ultimately after not finding where the problem was coming from, I went back to intrepid with the acpi=noirq option which works best for me on my HP dv9610us.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
I actually don't believe this problem is fixed at all. I messed with jaunty when I had heard that this problem was fixed in the 2.6.28 kernel but experienced erratic keyboard/mouse behavior. Might just be me but I never had the problem in intrepid. Now, I am not sure exactly what your problem is with the 32bit version crjackson, I do know (having the dv9610us myself), that it takes a bit of... coaxing... to get it to install out-right. My laptop refused to boot into the GUI until i pulled up a direct console (ctrl-alt-f1), customized the xorg.conf file and added the ' Driver vesa ' for the video display, then did a 'sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart'. That allowed me to install the OS and actually will copy that xorg.conf to the main drive. After which, I connected it to the net via cat5, installed b43-fwcutter (i believe is the file) which enabled my wireless, then installed nvidia-glx-180 and re-edited my conf file and changed the driver to nvidia. Once all that was done i restarted KDE and was good to go with accelerated drivers. Everything after that is a breeze.

The status if this bug is Fix Released but it sounds like the problem is still there. I recently convinced my younger brother to convert to Ubuntu and he has one of the affected HP Turion systems.

Is it possible to make this problem go away fairly easily or should he just go with 8.04? Since 8.10 is already installed and works fine short of this issue, 8.10 is preferred.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
No offense to you sir, but I really wouldn't consider it fixed when the problem is still present in the current official release. The only ways to fix it are to either A) compile the kernel yourself, or B) dist-upgrade to an Alpha testing release. As well, the distro listed when the bug-report was filed is intrepid, not jaunty. As of now, we don't get the 2.6.28 kernel, thus, it is not really fixed at all.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
I suppose I jumped the gun a bit and I appologize, I am sure you understand I myself, as well as many others (as you can see by the growing number of posts in this thread), have been dealing with this issue since 8.04 (if I remember correctly). I was under the impression that now that it is marked as fixed according to Jaunty that we will be neglected and forced to suffer through screwy flag fixes until Jaunty becomes official. There have been quite a few bugs in Intrepid that I over-looked because they intended to fix it eventually (Like bluetooth being completely un-usable unless you install the gnome manager). Seems to me that kernel level bugs effecting an entire chipset, plaguing an entire line of laptops (primarily any HP Pavilion laptop with nvidia on board), would be a priority. So long as we aren't dismissed and forgotten, I am content with waiting. Again, I appologize.

Re: [Bug 272247] Re: System freezes during boot, unless I hold a key down
That's hard to say, from what I read the .28 kernel has some brand-spanking-new stuff in it. Supposedly, it works in Intrepid as is. I've been poking around on random forums and blogs and found that there are quite a few people now who are temporarily adding the Jaunty repos` just long enough to steal the new kernel and it's been working for them. There are a few other's whom compiled the kernel and had success as well. I also heard there may be problems with that new kernel and nvidia drivers, but it may have been remedied.

SRElysian, maybe this answer your question: Kernel Parameters- http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt 2008/11/27 SRElysian [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am going to ask a dumb question here, I've done a bit of research but can't seem to find a good explanation as to what the consequences are so I figured I'd ask here just to get the record straight for myself as well as anyone else with this issue trying to get the same information. So far I've seen a few different options that bypass the problem; acpi=off (disables power management completely and I personally wouldn't suggest) acpi=noirq nolapic Which is best to use? All documentation I've found seems to state these 2 things are not the same. At current, I am using the apci=noirq, but I am not sure what that actually does, and if perhaps nolapic would be better.
