Stefan, I've solved my problem by upgrading to 2.6.30. If you're curious, then read on to find out how...
I tried 'pause_on_oops' but it didn't help. It looks like both 'cores' of the hyper-threaded Atom CPU are both panic'ing at roughly the same time. There was no way to prevent crap scrolling off the top of the screen. I then tried a couple of experiments: 1) The kernel boots fine, with full ACPI support, with maxcpus=1. So, it appears to be SMP related. 2) I booted w/o maxcpus=1, but with acpi=ht to only enable sufficient ACPI support to detect the hyper-threaded processor. That crashes with the same stack trace I posted in comment #64. I searched launchpad a bit and found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267254. The work-around suggested there was to run 2.6.30. I installed the linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 package from Debian Sid, rebooted, and everything's fine. ACPI is working *and* both hyperthreads are working. I still had to fight with wireless by installing broadcom-sta- modules-2.6.30-1-686 (also from Sid) but as of now everything is working fine with Jaunty on my HP 2140 mininote. -- Kernel panic after update to 2.6.24-23 on Acer Aspire One netbook https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
