|
|
if I try including nouveau in the kernel and rebooting into that kernel, I get this message:
power button [pwrf]
acpi: requesting acpi_cpufreq
tsc; marking tsc unusable due to tsc halts in idle
acpi: invalid active0 threshhold
thermal lnxtherm:00: registered as thermal_zone0
acpi: thermal zone t200

acpi: battery slot [bat1] (battery present)
and the boot just hangs there, If I remove nouveau everything works fine
thanks |

It looks like an acpi problem. Initializing the nouveau driver
at that point is coincidental. Ie, acpi is waiting for some probe
to return information, the kernel pauses it to handle a notification
from the nouveau driver, and somehow acpi never restarts
(missed the probe return, still waiting when the nouveau
driver finishes its initialization). Missing lock?
Try some different kernels. _________________ TIA |

I've tried my machine's kernel, and a different kernel
non nouveau kernels boot
others just show the same error message
an initrd wasn't helpful either |

mm... I think nouveau still doesn't have power management code. Could be this the reason if you're trying it to force something it doesn't support. |

There is a linux-acpi bugzilla and mailing list. You might search either for
mention of nouveau to see if anyone else has reported a similar bug.
You can also search for mention of your mb, mb chipset, BIOS version,
etc, in the context of acpi.
