Lou Hurst, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ . Please advise on your results.

** Description changed:

- Basic hardware info:
+ MSI notebook, Model GT70-0NC-008US; tag under the battery shows GT70
+ -0NC-494US Am not running as a dual boot install. I unable to boot this
+ system unless acpi=off and "quiet splash" is deleted from grub. I am
+ running this as the only OS, NOT a dual boot. I am able to boot, install
+ and run 12.04 Precise 64 bit on this system, BIOS in legacy mode for
+ install and running from HDD. Following steps in Debugging ACPT - Ubuntu
+ Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI) I have updated to the
+ latest BIOS on the box.
  
- MSI notebook,
- Model GT70-0NC-008US; tag under the battery shows GT70-0NC-494US
- Win 8 64 bit was pre-installed
- Intel Core i7-3610QM Processor, 2.3 GHz
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670M
- 750GB HDD
- 16GB RAM
- No raid
+ WORKAROUND: With 12.10 installed to HDD tried booting with all options

+ boots ok and into usable environment.
  
- Am not running as a dual boot install.
- 
- Am running 64 bit version of Ubuntu 12.10.
- 
- As in summary, am unable to boot this system unless acpi=off and "quiet

- HDD installation.  Also when installed to HDD.

- I am running this as the only OS, NOT a dual boot.

- I am able to boot, install and run 12.04 Precise 64 bit on this system,

- 
- With acpi=off and "quiet splash" deleted, system boots ok and into

- 
- Note also that the Synaptics touchpad doesn't work even with Synaptiks
- package installed.  Mouse works fine.  Am not trying to jam multiple
- problems into this report, merely including as a possible symptom that
- might be related.  If not please ignore.

- With acpi=noirq and "quiet splash" deleted system starts to boot and
- stops with the following as last line:

  In the troubleshooting steps I was unable to suspend or hibernate the
- system so am unable to supply a /var/log/kern.log.0 file.  I have
- attached a file, msi_acpi_debug_files.tar.gz that has a copy of output
- from:

- uname -a, sudo lspci -vvnn, sudo dmidecode.
+ I am unable to include a tarball of /proc/acpi directory as that
+ directory doesn't exist.
  
- I am unable to include a tarball of /proc/acpi directory as that directory 
doesn't exist - I presume that since I need to boot from the live USB with acpi 
off and/or having to boot without it the directory wasn't created.
