Please see if this is reproducible on the latest development kernel (currently vanilla-sources-2.6.15_rc2) Created attachment 73589 [details]
Screenshot kernel hang vanilla-2.6.15_r2
Ok,
I tried vanilla-sources-2.6.15_r2. I just took the .config from the
gentoo-2.6.12-r6 and did a make oldconfig and enterred through all the new
options.
Next I booted with the new kernel and took a picture.
So, anything newer than 2.6.12 seems to have a broken ACPI for the HP nw8240
laptop. This one has a Centrino chipset.

Please try this patch: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=51332&action=view Maybe related bugs: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=116763 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5221 I tested this fix and now booting works fine. The booting process seems to be a bit slower than with gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r6, but it works. I might have to tweak the 2.6.15_rc2 a bit more. As far as ACPI goes it now seems to work fine. This patch may very well be applicable to the 2.6.13 and 2.6.14 kernels. I think the maybe related bugs are definitely related ;-). Thanks for that info. I think I'll stick with 2.6.12 for now as it works fine for me, but I will try out the newer gentoo-sources as they come available as stable. will track upstream bug fixed upstream Fixed in genpatches-2.6.14-5 / gentoo-sources-2.6.14-r4 |
