Latest working kernel version: No one, Notebook New Earliest failing kernel version:" Distribution:Every, Intrepid, Suse 11, Fedora 10 Hardware Environment:Nexoc E622 / Clevo M764S / Mitac ?! Software Environment: intrepid Ibex Problem Description: No Start of Live Cd or system without "nolapic" or "nmi_watchdog=1", Freezing directly after choosing a kernel to boot ! Steps to reproduce: Start the Notebook ;-) Tell me what infos u need, and where i can find them to post it here !
Will you please attach the output of acpidump? Will you please try the following boot option and see whether the problem still exists? a. processor.max_cstate=1 b. idle=poll c. maxcpus=1 d. nolapic_timer Thanks.

The Notebook starts with every command of u, fine... But still the CPU Throttle is at minimum 1,2Gz ( 50% of Power), but the minimum must be 800 or sth. else.
please attach the result of "grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/*".
startet with nolapic the output is ( Please send message with another start command if u want, for the output of cpufreq ) : /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/affected_cpus:0 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq:2400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq:2401000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq:1200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/related_cpus:0 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies:2401000 2400000 2000000 1600000 1200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:conservative powersave userspace ondemand performance /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq:1200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver:acpi-cpufreq /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor:ondemand /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:2401000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq:1200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed:<unsupported> The cpu is cooling all time and the fan is moving all time too...so there must be another frequency too, had the same procesor before in an fujitsu book, the minimum was 800Mhz

grep ./proc/acpi/fan/*/* grep . /proc/acpi/fan/*/* grep /proc/acpi/fan/*/* All leave a blinking cursor and nothing happens in the console anymore... But in win Xp the Book was "quiet" when it was in office use etc. And it was at 33% Percent, in Linux its at minimum 49% ( like now ) ;-)
hmm, please run 1. acpidump --addr 0x7FD94E2F --length 0x000002DC > cpu0ist 2. acpidump --addr 0x7FD94574 --length 0x00000518 > cpu0cst and attach the cpu0ist and cpu0cst files here. there is no ACPI fan device available on this laptop. so maybe there is some other way to control the fan, like BIOS, platform specific drivers, etc. could you please check if there is any BIOS option for FAN control?
Hi, Benji Will you please also attach the following output besides the output required in comment #10? ./acpidump --addr 0x7fd95338 --length 0x0402 -o cpu2ist ./acpidump --addr 0x7fd9573a --length 0x0402 -o cpu3ist Thanks.
re: 2.6.27 boot hang strange that nmi_watchdog=1 makes the system boot. that must mean the distro is running with nmi_watchdog=2 by default? Does nmi_watchdog=0 also work? (this should be the default). does "clocksource=pit" allow the system to boot? how about... clocksource=acpi_pm clocksource=hpet please attach the dmesg from any successful boot any of the boots except the "nolapic" one.
Hey. thank u for all ur help, but i have given it back to my dealer... ;-) Too muxh stress
okay, close this bug. benji, please re-open it if you have a change to do some tests on it. :)
