I have one of these new Dells as well; same problems here. I don't see a way to make Intrepid usable without disabling acpi completely. (...and losing a CPU.)
To answer a question above: a lot of the ICH10 support is fairly new. I'm not convinced that the real problem isn't in Dell's firmware. I have the A02 bios released on 25 February 2009, as, I suspect, does the original reporter. -- Jaunty will not boot on Dell Optiplex 760 unless hpet=disable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348694 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
