ACPI conflict with USB

I'm wondering if there is any work towards correcting the ACPI conflict with USB. On my system, I cannot use any USB devices due to a timeout anytime I use ACPI with my kernel. Other people have noticed this happening on their systems as well, so I am assuming it isn't just on my system. If I could be of assistance with testing patches in an attempt to fix this problem, just send me an email outlining what I need to look for and do.

Thank you!

Have you tried the latest 2.5 kernels? I think this is fixed in 2.5.69 for the majority of people. Also, does booting with "noapic" work for you?

thanks,

If it is supposed to have been fixed in 2.5.69, that must be the reason usb stopped working with acpi on 2.5.69 for me. Worked fine with 2.5.68.

Only three days since I reported it, and you say it is fixed? Gee.

David: The consensus on acpi-devel is to report it in bugzilla, and see what happens.

I'm using kernel 2.5.69-bk3 with this recent test. Booted with noapic, and I get thousands of lines of APIC errors. I still get the 'bulk_msg: timeout' with USB though. This hasn't ever worked for me. First tried with 2.5.54. I don't think I tried 2.5.68. Should I and see if it was something in a patch to 2.5.69?

Thanks,
David

Originally I never got usb to work with acpi, until one day I found out that irq12 needed to be in use (!). If I booted with a ps/2 mouse, it worked perfect. After some investigation, I found out that my BIOS had a setting for PS/2 mouse, which were disabled, enabled and auto. Auto were the default. The irq 12 was only reserved when there was a mouse at boot. If I set it at enabled, it always reserved irq 12. After I found this out, usb worked perfect untill 2.5.69.

My motherboard is a Asus CUV266-DLS, Dual P3. Why irq12 has to be enabled, I have never understood.

As a curiosity, I might tell you that when I boot my motherboard with MPS1.4 enabled, I have to disable the secondary ide port to get it to boot Linux. BUT, when I do that, usb doesn't work (without acpi). So I have to use MPS1.1 and have the secondary ide port enabled to get usb working without acpi. It was better with 2.5.68 :( I guess this is just my motherboard being fscked up, but other OS' boot fine, regardless of PS/2 mouse and/or secondary IDE port enabled.

Okay. I think I have figured some things out. With 2.5.69-bk4, I have ACPI and APM built into my kernel.

If I boot normally, ACPI loads first and I get timeouts and my USB trackball doesn't register with input.

If I boot with noacpi, I still have the same problem.

If I boot with pci=noacpi, I do *not* have the problem. I still have the timeout, but my trackball works. However, I have many lines of an acpi_irq handler and call trace with the comment 'irq 20: nobody cared!'. I also get 'APIC error on CPU0: 00(40)' and 'APIC error on CPU0: 40(40)' a couple dozen times each.

If I boot with noacpi *and* pci=noacpi, I have the all of the problems mentioned; no trackball and the pci=noacpi related problems.

Someone mentioned using noapic, but it doesn't have any effect.

Any questions?

Thanks,
David

Is that an AMD/SMP system?

function.linuxpower.ca

It is a non-HT Pentium 4 (Uniprocessor) running on an Asus P4S8X motherboard. SiS648/SiS963 chipsets.

I've tried numerous configs and have problems, so I don't have a clue. I've attached the current one none-the-less.

Thanks,
David

Yeah! Then I would recommend using this option for your hardware, and ignoring the error messages at startup. The "nobody cared!" messages are being worked on by others, and are probably not because of this problem at all (lots of people see them right now on lots of different hardware configurations.)

My box doesn't boot with pci=noacpi, so that doesn't really help my problem much :)
