We blacklist acpi by year for i386 (2001), some newer might need acpi=off or pci=noacpi, some older still needing/working with acpi need acpi=force. There is no better way, if you have such a machine that is on the edge of the date, you need to pass this parameter (parameters passed at installation time will always be active later). Still your issue could be fixed by a DVD firmware update (using the latest is IMO always a good idea) or possibly a BIOS update (not sure whether I would risk that for this issue..). If you do not miss any functionality with acpi=off (some devices not working because of wrong assigned interrupts (pci=noacpi might help), or power button, shutdown or reboot), you just might want to use this option for that machine. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
