Does kernel 2.6.25 work? Does booting with acpi=off make a difference? I already tried 2.6.25 kernel and it failed. I got the following error message : PCI: BIOS BUG: MCFG area at e0000000 is not E820-reserved PCI: Not using MMCONFIG and the boot sequence stopped. -> I had to specify noapic, nolapic and irqpoll options at min to get it loaded. For acpi option, I didn't try it yet. I'll let you know if I get better results. -> for acpi=off, the system seems to be more stable. Howether all acpi related contols are not available ... =( One more precision, I'm on a 64bits installation : amd64 Thanks for this information. Reassigning to ACPI. Will you please attach the output of dmesg, lspci -vxxx, acpidump? As it is regression, will you please use git-bisect to identify which commit causes the regression? Thanks. I'm afraid I won't be able to send you any other information. My laptop is dead :( It worked only 10 days !!!! I hope someone with similiar hardware configuration will be able to continue diagnose and report these issues. Regards, Jonathan Dray Thanks for the update. It is possible that whatever problem killed your laptop is related to what you reported here, and since it's impossible to debug it now that your laptop is dead I'm closing this bug.

acpidump command output
Hi, I managed to get my laptop running again. It was a hardware issue. I was running vista anyway. Please find attached the output of dmesg, lspci and acpidump tools. It is a regression between a 2.6.26-rc8 and a 2.6.24 kernel. The 2.6.24 did not work without at least noapic, nolapic and irqpoll options so I don't think a git-bisect output will be really valuable... Jonathan Hi, Jonathan
As said in comment #11 the 2.6.24 kernel also can't work without the boot option of "noapic".
Will you please try the boot option of "noapic" on 2.6.26-rc8 kernel and see whether the problem still exists?
Thanks.
can you please try boot option acpi_processor.max_cstate=1? Hi, First, thank you all for your suggestions. I found out that it was an issue with the madwifi driver on amd64 on 2.6.26 kernels. When I blacklisted the module, my laptop didn't freeze anymore. Still it may be related to madwifi+ACPI but it will take some more time to investigate. I must first set up and test madwifi with a 2.6.24 or a 2.6.25 kernel. Best regards, Jonathan Dray we don't really care about bug reports with binary only modules. Please reopen if you can reproduce without madwifi or any other closed modules. Thanks. |
