Public bug reported: Tried installing Kubuntu Gutsy 7.10 onto a HP Pavilion a1323w. When booting from the live disc i get a "[37.964147] Kernel Panic-not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work". I tried with the following options by themselves apic=debug, noapic, acpi = off, all with no results. I had to hard reboot after this. Then i tried noapic, nolapic together and it dropped me into ramsfs(not sure if thats spelled right) command prompt, which i have no idea where to go from there. I was able to install 7.04 and tried upgrade path from 7.04 to 7.10 with Adept and it failed, leaving my system unusable. I reinstalled 7.04 which is what i'm using now. I get a timer error on 7.04 during boot, but the system loads and i have seen no issues other than the error message. I have the nvidia 7300gs card in the pci-x slot. lspci gave me 00:02.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 PCI-X Root Port 00:11.0 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc ATI 437A Serial ATA Controller (rev 80) 00:12.0 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc ATI 4379 Serial ATA Controller (rev 80) 00:13.0 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 USB Host Controller (rev 80) 00:13.1 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 USB Host Controller (rev 80) 00:13.2 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 USB2 Host Controller (rev 80) 00:14.0 SMBus: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 SMBus Controller (rev 81) 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller ATI (rev 80) 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio (rev 01) 00:14.3 ISA bridge: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 PCI-ISA Bridge (rev 80) 00:14.4 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB400 PCI-PCI Bridge (rev 80) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7300 GS (rev a1) 02:02.0 Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem 02:05.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
