The strange thing is: I wonder why this changed from 10.2 GM to 10.2 update kernel? Andi, Karl-Heinz needs acpi=force since last 10.2 update kernel, GM was running fine out of the box. Is this the result of getting the maxcpus=0 noapic bug reports under control? I couldn't find any patch in kernel.changes that points to ACPI blacklisting changes..., really strange. Sorry, but there is not much we can do. Fiddling with blacklisting is a bad idea in general for an update kernel. Some old, broken machines need acpi=off, some even older ones need acpi=force. -- 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.
