------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-01-30 23:51 ------- Im afraid noapic is not an option in the long run, at least for newer systems. BIOS writers simply dont care for this because Windows uses the APIC if present. For example, on my machine the interrupt routing table in the DSDT is completely broken (using non-existing interrupt links and wrong I/O ports for enabling interrupt links). Originally I could only boot with pci=noacpi since otherwise the interrupt for the SATA controller wasnt enabled and the boot hung, and it took me quite some time to find this command line option. Even a BIOS update didnt fix the crappy DSDT. In other words how does an innocent user who installs Linux on such a system should know about these options (or how to fix his DSDT)? ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
