Public bug reported:
I have a AMDX64 5200 wit a AliveSATA2-GLAN Board and Nvidia 8800 GT
Graphics.
Since one week (after a Hardy 8.4 update) my system freezes on startup when
activating powernow.
I upgraded to 8.10 beta, but the issue is still there.
If I disable the "cool and quiet" option at the bios or the powernowd on
startup, the system starts normally.
Because I get "Non Fatal - PCI-Express Device" errors I first suspected my
graphic card first.
But it seems independent on the graphics.
Fact 1: Sometimes (after a few reboots and startups in recovery mode) I
am able to boot normally. Then I can use the powernow-applet normally.
The System runs stable and the CPU-Scaling works perfectly.
Fact 2: With a older 8.4 Installation I have no problems.
Suggestion: Sometimes the CPU-freq-settings are in a condition, which
causes the immediate freeze of the complete system.
Any ideas?
