Hi,

I hope I don't mistreat any code of the mailinglist. I am new here.

I have a new HP Elitebook 2530p with Debian on it (and also Vista).

With 2.6.27 I had no ACPI problems until a VISTA Update somehow broke the ACPI tables.

Now if I boot with ACPI enabled on 2.6.27 and 2.6.28-rc9 the computer hangs completely. It only works with acpi=ht.

I also tried pci=noacpi, acpi=noirq, there it hung saying it has a problem with the second CPU.

Can anyone tell me, how to get the proper debugging info for you, so you can help.

Do you prefer screenshots?

thanks
Philipp

Hi Philipp,

Please check if http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11884 is the same problem.
There is a patch, which is reported to help with HP 2730p.
If patch does not help you, please create new bug report and attach your acpidump and dmesg (at least from acpi=ht run).

Regards,
Alex.

Hi Alexey,

thank you very much for your help.

I can confirm, that the patch in #63 works with 2530p as well. Now the kernel boots without any special acpi parameter.

Only regression I now see with full ACPI turned on, is that I can't dim the display anymore.

Will this patch go into 2.6.29?

Thanks
Philipp

With some luck it even may still appear in .28...
Certainly .29 will have it.

Hi,

just compiled .29-rc1 and I am still having the issue.

I checked in the sources and the check for ASUS is still missing. Adding it by hand makes .29-rc1 working for me. Could you please get this into rc2.

Thanks
Philipp
