OpenSUSE Install :: Boot Hangs With Acpi Enabled
Apr 11, 2011
I have an old laptop (asus M6 ca. 6 year old) with dual boot linux windows. Untill Saturday linux=suse 11.0, Saturday I have made an upgrade to opensuse11.4.
I have boot up/down many times almot everything was working properly except the battery status ... I have thought .. "I'll think about it later".
Then out of the blue on sunday my laptop does not boot anymore, the boot hangs. I then have realized taht the failsafe boot was working properly.... ok I have remembered the wrong battery signal and tried the normal boot + acpi=off .. and .. it boots!
OK, the acpi is the problem. I have never made an update of my BIOS (this means it is now old), but I do not really want to update it now. with suse 11.0 the acpi was working properly, I have never have touched the acpi boot option and I had all acpi functionality working (battery, suspend .. etc)
how to let acpi work (at least for the main features .. batetry, fan speed, HT ... etc)?
It can be that the old kernel boot was using some "specific flags", (an installation is cleverer than an upgrade ..?!?!) but unfortunatelly it looks to me that nothing has remained from the old installation .. so I do not know ...

When I run OpenSUSE from the Live CD using normal settings, booting stops with a blank screen a moment after the kernel is loaded. When running it with ACPI disabled, it works, but direct rendering is disabled, even though it detects my video card (Mobility Radeon HD 5650) correctly Here's the Xorg.0.log file: my xorg log - [URL]

My openSuse install can't boot/login with ACPI enabled. I disabled ACPI and have been using it for a while, but would like to get ACPI working.
When I did the install from the livecd it would hang when loading the kernel. I would see the progress indicator get to 99% and then my computer froze. I disabled ACPI from the options and was able to install.
But I never got any error messages or any other output so I don't know what module was causing the problem when being loaded.

After upgrading to 11.2 my laptop HP dv9000 I'm getting some errors:
ACPI Error (psargs-0359): [2012] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND
ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0._OSC] (Node ffff88007fbf45f0), AE_NOT_FOUND

I've looked around the threads and can't find this exact problem. I'm on a Compaq Presario F700 running openSUSE 11.3. During boot it hangs in three different places, all of which I can clear up by clicking the mouse buttons or moving my finger on the pad.
The first place it hangs is after: doing fast boot ^[^[^[creating device nodes with udev
The second place is INIT version 2.88 booting
The third place is copying static /dev content.
Like I said, I can get through all three and everything else works great, I just hate having to watch my machine boot to catch these.

Here's my problem:
New HP Mini 110. Atom N270. 2Gb RAM. 160Gb HDD
I've installed OpenSUSE 11.2 Gnome Live from a USB stick. The installation worked well, but after the first reboot, the graphical loader just hangs with the progress bar having moved only a couple of pixels. Only way to recover is to power-off - CTRL+ALT+DEL does nothing.
When I press 'Esc' on boot, to display the boot messages, I see the boot hangs at the following point:
"Loading drivers, configuring devices:"
trying again, this time adding the boot option "acpi=off" as recommended in another thread, gets me a little further, but the boot now fails at the following point:
"Set System Time to the current Hardware Clock"
Finally, booting in Failsafe mode gets all the way to a text mode login, but this is hardly a long-term work-around.
Has anyone got openSUSE 11.2 working on an HP Mini 110, or at least seen and solved this problem on another system? I can confirm openSUSE 11.2 works fine on my old Acer Aspire One A150, so I assume this is a specific issue on the HP.

During the boot process the machine (Fujitsu Celsius M470) hangs about 4 min at udev:loading drivers. After that it continues and I can work with the OpenSuse 11.2 system without problems.I activated the debug log in /etc/udev/udev.confthen I see that it is doing a lot in that time, at the end I see the message:udevadm settle timeout queue contains: a long list of pci/usb entries (no entries in any log for this)
in the logfile I find:udevd-work[1071]: '/sbin/modprobe' (stderr) 'FATAL: Error inserting ipmi_si (/lib/modules/2.6.31.12-0.1-desktop/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si.ko): No such device'there is no ipmi. how can I deactivate the loading of this module?

Tried to install Suse 11.4 on Core 2 Duo 3.16 GHz 4 GB RAM PC alongside Win XP.Installation progress was fine. I rebooted. The gecko appeared and the process bar kept going just about 1/10, then froze. I saw that it froze at the Loading AppArmor Mounting security fs on /sys/kernel/security.I tried safe-mode and it also froze at the same step. tried installing suse 11.3 -- and ended up with the same problem.

I don't know why, but when i first boot openSUSE at the morning in my Aspire it hangs over and over again. I don't know why is this, but the gecko appear, the white bar appear, and moves 1cm, and then, puff no more blinking from the hard drive. Then i force te reboot, over and over until works.The message is: acerhdf: no Aspire One hardware foundWhen i first installed the mini with openSUSE it works perfect for a week, and then start this problem.I have tried with different kernel flavors (like desktop) and still nothing.

I just upgraded my OpenSuSE 11.2 system to 11.3 and have experienced the following problem:
My hard drive was encrypted beforehand, and after the upgrade(which went smoothly) will no longer decrypt. I type in my passphrase at the prompt, press enter and the start up process never resumes. I am able to access the filesystem from the Rescue System option in the install disk. What's strange is that this worked smoothly on another laptop of mine.

I have updated to the new kernel that was available from 11.2 and now I cant use my system.
It boots up into kde 4.3.5 and then right when its just finishing it freezes everytime and I hear that last tone of the bootup sound ring continually until I force a shutdown. Anyone else have this issue with the update?

I installed 11.3 first as update from 11.2. The later described error occured.My first approach was to install 11.3 as full install from scratch, the following error did not disappear.System boots fine when doing boot option "confirm" and answer "no" to haldaemon service. Subsequently no usb devices are recognized by the system.
If i do not skip the haldaemon, either in normal as in failsafe mode,haldaemon reports a "NULL Pointer dereference", which is repeated very often.The system finally stops booting, the screen is full with the following three lines, which seemed to be repeated for about a minute.
"BUG: Cannot handle NULL Pointer dereference at 000000049.
IP: [<c02250bc>] no_context+0x6c/0x150
*pde = 000000000
i removed old unused hardware, as i read in a older thread, that this was the cause for a boot up failure with the haldaemon, but nothing changed.

I created an OpenSUSE 11.4 PV guest on XenServer 5.6, and about half the time, it fails to finish booting. it starts all the services, and fails immediately before it would display the login prompt. I've spent hours googling for this problem, and can't find any reference to it anywhere, meaning that I may be the first to experience it.
has anyone else done OpenSUSE 11.4 on XenServer 5.6 and had this problem? were you able to resolve it, and how?

i am trying to install the new openSUSE 11.3 version but i can't install it without setting the ACPI mode to OFF. Is the new kernel support this hardware? (Toshiba Satellite A505-s6033) i had this problem already with Ubuntu 10.4 LTS and i had have to recompile the kernel with this patch: Some buggy BIOS may modify DSDT memory when acpi enabled. So we copy DSDT for safe.
I thought the 2.6.34 kernel already have this patch but it seems i was wrong... So if i will install the system with ACPI on OFF mode i will be need to recompile the kernel with this patch to get things working?

Having trouble rebooting a system. Have a Ubuntu 9.10 (2.6.31-16 generic-pae) build on a VMWare installation. The system was fine until I rebooted after an update. Now I get the above message and the system halts loading. Have tried to Grub acpi=off and acpi=force to no avail.

HW config is: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Black Edition, MSI 785GTM-E45, 2X 1Gb Kingston HyperX PC2-8500. I have set up GRUB to dualboot openSUSE 11.2 and WindowsXP. Initially i had set up system with defaults: CPU@2600MHz (200X13) and therefore RAM@800MHz. Both openSUSE 11.2 and WindowsXP worked just fine. Memtest86 found no problems.
But after a while i decided to change this setup to: CPU@2500MHz (250X10) and therefore RAM@1000MHz, as it promised better overall performance. And now Windows still boots and works better then before. Memtest86 still can't find any problem. But openSUSE 11.2 hangs at boot. I've suspected cpufreq governor, but changing from Ondemand to Conservative in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq doesn't help.

i have a little experience with ubuntu but i have had bugs that are not resolvable at this time in ubuntu. so instead of giving wild bill back my pc i am looking for a new distro. my concerns with ubuntu revolve around acpi. no fan control and high temp. the 2nd problem that is almost overlookable is the ata1 softreset error. it usually is no problem but occasionally have to do manual fsck to fix. so heres my laptop specs. toshiba a305d-s6848. amd turion x2 ati x1250 integrated. 3gb ram. 500gb hd vista and ubuntu 9.04 dual boot grub with 100gb ubuntu and the rest vista. so q1= what suse version would be best?
q2= is suse's acpi better? ubuntu runs all features but fan control
q3= is suse as easy to install? or harder
q4= ati graphics i know for my card went to legacy what version still has the ati drivers for my card
q5= is suse easier or harder to work with and get everything working.
i know no linux is or opsys is perfect. im just looking for one that is stable and works the pc correctly. i know its a big thing to ask. i know no one can tell me that. but just looking for suggestions. im thinking of downloading suse and does all the downloads support live sessions.

I haven't been able to use linux for like 6 months I've tried Fedora 14, Debian Testing, Ubuntu 10.04 and now Mint KDE.
Whenever I boot any distro my laptop acts randombly, it gets to GDM and it freezes, or it lets me login and then freezes or works really slow, even through the shell.
The only thing I could figured is to insert acpi=off on the boot commands googling around, and there it boots.
My problem is that it gets overheated, I can't use any porcessor policy and I can't suspend my laptop with that boot line.

I have just completed a dual boot installation of FC10. The install was done from CD's I downloaded from the Fedora website. The installation (seemed to have) went fine, and the machine still boots into XP if selected from the menu. The Fedora installation does not complete the boot process. I have three bars that move across the bottom of the screen, and the Fedora 10 graphic tuns white, and then the system hangs. I have let it sit at this screen for as long as 30 minutes. The screen will blank occasionally, but returns to the same place if I hit a key on the keyboard.
I have it installed on an old HP E800 netserver, running dual P3-866mHz processors, 2GB ram, a ATI Radeon 7000 video card, and three 36GB SCSI drives, non-raid. I know FC10 will run on this machine, as I have a friend running it on another E800 without any problems. This machine does have on-board video that is disabled only by plugging a different video card in (Phoenix BIOS).

I've built several computers and installed Ubuntu on each one, and I've never had problems until my latest build. Here are the problems:The computer requires acpi=off to boot, and it won't boot with acpi=ht. I've searched for this, and there's a widely reproduced acpi troubleshooting guide that says that this means that there's something wrong with the acpi tables themselves, but I haven't found any fixes.If I go ahead and use acpi=off, then the computer works fine, but it hangs on shutdown. I've searched for this too, and the consensus seems to be to remove acpi=off from the boot options. This, of course, is not an option for me.

I recently put together a new machine with Ubuntu 9.10 I couldn't boot it even live (or any live distro for that). It wound up being either a ACPI or APM setting in the BIOS that got it to boot, I say either because I spent probably 10 hours in there turning things on and off until it worked. It was about 4am so my memory of it ain't that great. TO get up to date, I was adding a HDD and having some issues with it being detected right. So back in the BIOS I was and accidentally loaded the defaults! Now I can't figure out what I did last time I've been at it for hours with no luck.
If I jump into grub b4 it boots and add the acpi=off the system boots up but with the side effects of no pwr mgmt. I need it to be able to sleep and shut itself off. I've always had good luck with Ubuntu in other machines so I'm not that great in there, and honestly don't know the difference between apm/acpi. The MOBO is an ASUS P4C800 Deluxe, AMI Bios. I'm gunna keep at it in the mean time, if by any chance I figure it out I'll post what it was (after I write it down).

I recently tried to upgrade my openSuSe 11.1 system using the instructions at:
SDB:System upgrade - openSUSE
I successfully got the system to 11.2, but the upgrade from 11.2->11.3 went awry. The installation froze during the update, and I had to start it over. The first issue I had to deal with was the fact that rpm had been upgraded and zypper hadn't, so zypper wouldn't function because older rpm files that it would search for had been deleted. After rolling back rpm to a previous version, I managed to complete the upgrade to 11.3 and everything looked good. However, when I rebooted the system, it hangs at a blank screen. More precisely, the system seems to get through all of the BIOS stuff and then hang while loading the OS (I assume). Although I've worked on Windows boxes for a long time, I'm a complete novice at OS installations/upgrades for Linux systems, so I'm not even quite sure where to begin to troubleshoot this. Ideally, I'd like to be able to fix the installation on the system to save the data on the hard drives, but I realize this might not be possible. My first thought was to use a recovery tool that I'd seen on some Linux installation CDs, but I see that for openSuSe 11.3 and on that utility has been dropped. I can, however, use the disk to get to the "Rescue" command prompt, so maybe there's something I can do from there?

System is hanging during boot after a successful fresh install via netinstall disk. Never makes it to any GUI or prompt. However, it does still respond to CTRL-ALT-DEL (not completely frozen).Default debian installation with one exception - KDE checkbox was checked for installation. Everything else was default, with "use full disk with GRUB" option chosen.The boot process appears to hang during the service starts. It appears that the start job for "Create Static De..." is not actually ever completing. I don't know how to troubleshoot that any further than I have.
This is running on hardware, it is not a virtual machine. 480GB SSD, i7, 16GB of RAM, AMD R9 390 (I dunno if this is the problem, but it seems a likely culprit).There are no other disks attached. I have verified successful memtest completions (0 failures) and hard disk is intact and working fine (I have swapped for another disk, and the same thing happens as well).
My skill level with Linux is relatively low. I have proficiency using it and programming for it, but not much in the way of troubleshooting/ installation/ drivers.
Here is an album of "screenshots" (phone photos) of the boot sequence in debug: URL....I tried booting straight to console by removing "quiet" from boot options and changing to "text", but it does not alter the outcome in any discernible way.

It's only been a couple of days since I formatted my toshiba laptop's hard drive (i was running fedora without significant problems) and installed slackware 13.1 32bit. I did a network install because the dvd drive is not functioning properly. everything installed fine with the hugesmp kernel, but I started not being able to boot the laptop every single time I wanted to (especially after a reboot but also after a power up).
my observations:
-the pc might freeze in the very first toshiba logo screen (where you are prompted to press F2 to enter BIOS)
-or it might freeze when I get the lilo boot loader (not even the count down to choose kernel starts) - but i CAN use the arrows and press 'enter' to choose to load a kernel manually
-or just after it loads the kernel and the bios checks
-or during boot after in loads ACPI thermal zone
-or a little later during boot when the dhcpcd if broadcasting for a dhcp lease.
the first 3 are freezes, the last 2 are resets. especially if i need to reboot (or get the resets of the 2 last case), I will surely get stack in one of the first 3 cases afterwards! i have observed that rarely, after such a reset, if it actually gets stack in the toshiba logo, i might be able - pressing the poiwer buttonj repeatedly to actually overcome the 'freezing' there at which time i'll get to the lilo loader (the count down timer will not.. count down), but i can press 'enter' and I will finally get stack after loading the kernel and bios checks
So I have to powerdown the laptop and start all over again. Sometimes the whole boot process will proceed smoothly. and i'll get to a login prompt, and when I do I can keep the laptop up and running for virtually ever. that is it doesn't seem to be slackware related... Hwever the problems started after I installed slackware. I didn't have any problem with the fedora installation and i wonder if it has something to do with the network boot.... additional note, with feodra i didn't have a problem restarting or shutting down the laptop. now if i restart, the pc will go through the process of shutting down, but it will never actually reboot - i'll have to do it manually..

My live cd worked flawlessly.
After I installed it, is another story I chose to include the suggested .mp3 codec, and to install updates at the same time.
Cmos and hardware all inits fine, then I get several seconds of a cursor, followed by the nice "ubuntu" title with little orange squares under it.
Interestingly, the squares do not cycle until I hold down the power button.
Searching for "10.10 boot" somehow returned zero results. ??

I just installed Fedora 12. When I boot, only the following three lines are printed: pnp 00:09: can't evaluate _CRS: 12298 ACPI: Expecting a [Reference] package element, found type 0 Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) I first installed Fedora using a RAID 1 setup that mirrored each partition, so I thought the problem was coming from GRUB and confusion from what to boot off of. However, I reinstalled Fedora using a simple single drive setup (left the second drive without any partition), and the same error was returned. Is this an ACPI issue with this particular motherboard/BIOS? Any ideas for how I can fix this?
