The problem seems to be the AMD ATI SB600 chipset support in Linux. After following and participating in intensive discussions in the internet it seems that all PCs with this chipset will need "nohz=off" for booting (or much more limiting "safe settings").
Can you provide a link to those discussions? -- 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.

It's not a problem of the distro, it's a "built-in" problem with 2.6 kernels of all kinds of flavours.
I agree. Please open a bug at bugzilla.kernel.org and let us know what the kernel developers there say about this. -- 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.

As I said I could run vanilla WITHOUT "nohz=off" as a server without X if needed, but I cannot run a server without X using current opensuse factory kernel without "nohz=off". Therefore kernel people will most likely push back towards an xorg driver issue and I have no time for such ping-pong.
needing nohz=off is the first issue. that`s perfectly fine to be brought up on kernel bugzilla. please be so kind! -- 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.
