update from alpha1 to alpha 2 via CDs worked for me (using YaST) I'll see if I download them... My notebook works with kpowersave. What kind of hardware do you have? It's a Toshiba Satellite A70 S249. I can send the full 'lspci -vvv' output if you think it will help...
Hi Jorge, no thanks, but you should look for "unknown device" enties there.
ACPI works fine for me, only apic does not work, because of my ati ixp chipset. Same problem with APIC here. But ACPI isn't working. It hangs my machine when I boot and I have to use 'acpi=off' on Grub to be able to go on.
Try acpi=debug and look at the messages.
If I don't disable it, it hands in a place where a date is shown... Something like 2000508.... for a building version or revision.
Having no "nongpl" kernel is also a problem, since it means my Atheros card won't work... Hmm, but it is in: ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/10.1-i386/RPMS.extra/ker nel-default-nongpl-2.6.13.2-2.i586.rpm It's not the 'default', it's the SMP, sorry. I had talked about the 'smp' version before on the message and didn't repeat it on the part you quoted. And, if it's there on the very same version, then there's something trying to uninstall it when I upgrade.
There is also the smp-version. But do you really need smp? Are we still talking about your Toshiba notebook? Why does it need smp? Have you tried the nonsmp? -- mdc
