https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258400 ------- Comment #2 from karl-heinz_tm@hotmail.de 2007-03-29 13:33 MST ------- Yes, machine only boots properly with 10.2/2.6.18.2. Below's an excerpt from dmesg when the machine boots using 2.6.18.2 (what I am using right now). When it comes as far as talking about the floppy (last line below), it will boot for sure. The hangs in 10.1/10.2(2.6.18.8) occur either at the line "ACPI: Assume root bridge [\_SB_.PCI0] bus is 0" or on one of the two previous or later ACPI statements. When I boot into 10.1 or 10.2/2.6.18.8 with acpi=off, I do a "tail -f /var/log/messages" but there is absolutely nothing there that would provide any hint - often the last log entry is minutes old when the freeze happens. Any other hint where I should look (I'm not an expert)? I suspect there could be a link to the bcm43xx driver because I get lots of activity in the log when the card (4306 pcmcia) is plugged. Then again, I get these log entries in all environments - 10.1, 10.2/2.6.18.2 and 10.2/2.6.18.8 - and there are no freezes in 10.2/2.6.18.2. No clue where the difference is, however, I recall that ACPI is only active in the 10.2/2.6.18.2 situation. From the bcm43xx developers, I got a hint to switch to 2.6.18 when I inquired about these problems when running 10.1. Well, 2.6.18.2 did fix the issues but they apparently came back with 10.2/2.6.18.8. Hope this helps. Let me know what else I can do. Might have some time next weekend if there is any testing to do. -----------------excerpt from dmesg --------------------------------- Linux version 2.6.18.2-34-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)) #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f800 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000000009f800 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000000e8400 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 0000000017ff0000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 0000000017ff0000 - 0000000017fff800 (ACPI data) BIOS-e820: 0000000017fff800 - 0000000018000000 (ACPI NVS) BIOS-e820: 00000000fff80000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 0MB HIGHMEM available. 383MB LOWMEM available.
