Hello,
i googled a bit and found this entry, not sure whether i should post here. I
have a
similar problem on an Acer Notebook. It's an Acer Aspire 5520 G. I tested some
different Kernel versions - 2.6.25.8 is working fine without any problems,
although
i miss some features of 2.6.26.1 i would really want to use - Anyway, _every_
Kernel version in 2.6.26.* isn't working - The Kernel seems to end in a loop or
the Kernel is waiting for something after showing:
ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE
Anyway, let's give some other _maybe_ helpful information on this:
Booting up with framebuffer (vga=773 ... video=vesafb:mtrr:4,ywrap) gives a
blank
screen - if i press the "power" button on my notebook the screen appears and i
see
some acpi messages related to pressing the power button.
Booting without framebuffer gives no blank screen (vga=normal) the last message
i can see is the GPE Storm detected one.
I waited 5-10 Minutes, nothing happens.
Booting without acpi works - the system boots up. But.. as most things i use
are
using acpi, i cannot work with the system without acpi enabled. So i switched
back
to 2.6.25.8 for now.
Any further information i could provide to help here? I'm not a kernel hacker,
so
no idea how i could help ;) Ah by the way, pressing the power button gives some
information about a not connected battery - indeed the notebook battery isn't
plugged in, don't know whether that's important or not.
