https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471342 Summary: acpi spikes the CPU usage and on next boot completely crashes the system Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alexjironkin@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121300 SUSE/3.0.5-2.5 Firefox/3.0.5 I noticed this first in the openSUSE 11.0. The kacpid will start running at 20% cpu power, and slowing everything down horribly. Then when I reload it crashes the boot into an infinite loop with some message (which I can't read). In openSUSE 11.0 I had this in a number of different kernels and acpi versions. The current system is: kernel-pae 2.6.27.7-9.1 kernel-pae-base 2.6.27.7-9.1 acpid 1.0.6-89.6 I had a look in the acpi log file in /var/log but there is no mention of the error. The last entry in when I turned machine off. Which I guess means that acpi doesn't get to the logging when it crashes. However, I also assume there is a more detailed log file, which I have not found. The only solution to the problem that I could figure out is to specify acpi=off in the grub menu. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load regularly into openSUSE 11.1 2. work on it for a bit 3. Systems becomes slugish with high latency 4. Reboot and boot cycle gets stuck in the infinite loop Actual Results: Can't load the system. Only solution is to turn acpi off Expected Results: Loading the system -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
