Guest rogin Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 My Acer TM 8000 halts at boot time if i set the boot parameters acpi=on. acpi=ht seems to work. 1. How do I verify that ACPI is working properly on MDK 10.0? 2. I am guessing that I will have to recompile my kernel... What are the settings for a successful ACPI configuration? 3. What is the setting for the default kernel that was installed? Linux version 2.6.3-7mdk (nplanel@n3.mandrakesoft.com) (gcc version 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk)) #1 Wed Mar 17 15:56:42 CET 2004 Thanks!!

Guest rogin Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Here's where it hangs: " [...] PCI: Using configuration type 1 mtrr: v2.0 (20020519) ACPI: Subsystem revision 20040211 Looking for DSDT in initrd ... not found! ACPI: IRQ9 SCI: Edge set to Level Trigger. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sebsche Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 got the same problem excpet on a travelmate 800lci and gentoo (2.6.7 rc6) any resolutions yet ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmack Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Might want to check if apmd is running on startup. You can check from MCC. You cannot run apm and acpi at the same time. I'm running a TM 803Lci w/ 9.2 and working OK but I really haven't had a chance to trash it out as I have just finished an international move of 12,500 miles and things are still stacked up here. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rogin Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 I found the solution for this problem a few weeks ago. Forgot to post the solution though... This is a kernel 2.6 problem Solutiopn: Add "nolapic" to the kernel boot options See bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269 This is how my grub entry looks like: " title linux kernel (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 devfs=mount nolapic resume=/dev/hda8 splash=silent vga=788 initrd (hd0,4)/boot/initrd.img " This should stop ACPI from hanging at boot time. Does it work for you??? /m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yellowhippy Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I do have the same Problem with my Samsung P35. When I try "nolapic" it resumes but then my screen goes black. Linux seems to be running in the background though, since I can log on and reboot. Thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
