http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1142926 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1142926#c3 --- Comment #3 from Gary Greene --- This is a new machine, so I am unaware if openSUSE ever worked on this model of machine. As requested, I've attempted to boot the machine with the noapictimer flag, and it _does_ get farther than before, however it hangs (no oops) when attempting to set the system clock: [ 1.931226] rtc_cmos 00:01: setting system clock to 2019-07-26T10:24:06 UTC (1564169046) The flags being passed to the linuxefi line follows: splash=0 verbose idle=nomwait mitigations=off noapictimer rescue=1 Note, I do see all cores trying to load up in this mode. New photo capture will be attached shortly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But before that, make sure whether the issue was already addressed in the latest upstream 5.3-rc kernel, found in OBS Kernel:HEAD repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/standard/ If you'd like to try some older kernels, you can find them in TW history repos, http://download.opensuse.org/history/ and I have a collection of old kernels in my OBS repos, e.g. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/kernel:/5.1/standard/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/kernel:/5.0/standard/ etc. When you deal with multiple kernels, I recommend you to edit /etc/zypp/zypp.conf and allow more installable kernels before the installing test kernels. Check the line multiversion.kernels and add more entries there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I now have all 4 cores/8 threads available. I do see some errors from the ACPI layer that do indicate that there are some areas of the BIOS from HP that are buggy, but at this time, the machine seems to be working without issue. I'll upload the current dmesg for comparison to the previous. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
