I expect that the timer is switched off in deeper sleep states (C3). Strange is that latest kernel sometimes works... Can you also try the processor.max_cstate=X parameter, pls. Then you save a lot more power. The question then is whether Sempron Mobile 3500/3600 should be blacklisted to not use C3 or whether the apictimer should not be used in this case. -- 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.

So far I see two possible root causes: (1) Either the APIC timer is used which will stop working if the machine goes into C3. If this causes your problems, then booting with "noapictimer" should help. (2) Wrong setup for timer interrupt routing. (That is why I requested more debug information). In such cases using one of - acpi_use_timer_override or - acpi_skip_timer_override might help (especially for the nVidia MCP51 chipset). I guess it's (1) that causes your system hang -- this is also Thomas' assumption -- but who knows. If all this does not help, chances are high that the problem is caused by some other misconfiguration of your hardware and a BIOS update is required to solve the problem.

Simply limiting C-states to C1 might not be the ideal solution as you loose the "Mobile" part of your Mobile Sempron and it consumes more power. We should still investigate a bit further, especially if it (possibly) worked already: this should be the time when the huge timer changes came in..., this might get difficult. Does anyone still have a working distribution (10.2 or Ubuntu 8.04) installed? If yes can you check whether the C-states are really used there: cat /proc/acpi/processor/*/power Also a dmesg (10.2 is preferred, but at least a working kernel) of a working kernel to compare could help. -- 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.

If you are sure 2.6.21.7 does work and (both plain vanilla kernel) 2.6.22.X does not work you may want to try a git bisect. The first time this can be a bit cumbersome, but this often is the easiest way to find difficult kernel problems. You should use the latest git tools from 11.0, do: git-clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6 <dir> To download the repository. man git-bisect gives some hints, if you are sure that plain 2.6.22 is broken you probably want to start with: git bisect start git bisect bad v2.6.22 git bisect good v2.6.21 git bisect good # if the next tested kernel worked .. git bisect always takes the middle of applied patches between good and bad until the offending patch is found. That means you have to recompile the kernel after each try, boot it, tell git about the outcome: git bisect good|bad recompile and try again... As this algorithm is logarithmic (halves amount of patches after each try), this works out relatively quickly... If you have questions about how to compile and or install the kernel, just ask. -- 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.

Ah yes, this got discussed/debugged mainline: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2008/6/16/2142494 IIRC my patch simply disables no_hz and/or highres for (some?) Semprons which is not perfect... Unfortunately debugging got stuck and there was no real outcome. You could follow up the thread and provide Thomas Gleixner with the relevant info he needs. This should do someone who is familiar with kernel building and should be done on latest kernels, best latest 2.6.29-rcX. I could look at it, but without even having a machine to reproduce, I am the wrong guy to try to find the root cause. Especially remotely, this would just be too much waste of time for all of us, sorry. On a quick shot you could try latest 29-rcX kernel from here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/x86_64/ you need -default and -default-base packages. Maybe things got magically fixed up meanwhile. I am going to close this one for now as won't fix. If things got fixed mainline and you (helped or) find out, please still post this in this bug and things could still get backported. -- 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.
