Hi,
I'm getting a lot of bug reports about hanging boot/shutdowns on these days.
Most of the affected hardware are ASUS laptops. The problem is that I
don't have access to any of those problematic laptops and the users are
not able at all to debug/bisect what is going on. However, I have
collected dmesgs of good/bad boots, acpidump, etc.
Here are the current status:
"Asus F50SV does not boot unless lapic is passed"
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26502
"Regression between 2.6.35-020635-rc1 and 2.6.35-020635 breaks acpi
support on Asus X71 laptop"
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/689796
"Asus N61JQ hangs at shutdown unless lapic is passed"
(Not reported upstream yet, I've only downstream bug report which is
Turkish)

"Asus X61S does not boot unless acpi=off is given"
(Not reported upstream yet, I've only downstream bug report which is
Turkish)
http://bugs.pardus.org.tr/show_bug.cgi?id=16322
(I've told the reporter to try with nolapic, it will probably fix the
issue but until confirmed acpi=off is the only solution. 2.6.36 was fine)
I'll post more bugs in here as I've found them.
Thanks,
