Richard, I understand your point. Yes, time to time there are computers that have specific errors/messages thrown in dmesg [non fatal mostly], but usually can be fixed and solved rather easily (I always look at syslog, etc. on every new install to check/solve specifically for them). I've never, in my experience, have had issues where the system would immediately softlock in this way. Heck, I've even had Linux (and reactOS) running on an old gateway 800MHZ Celeron 192MB RAM run better than this thing! And it didn't softlock out of the box. My issues of contention is that the same MB/CPU combo runs perfectly fine now in both HP and Lenovo's versions of this laptop. It's really just lazy programming on Acer's part; to be honest, there were issues even with win10 on earlier BIOS revisions too. I moonlight as a programmer time to time [bad one at that], however, I dedicate a lot of time to debug my work so it works as expected. These issues, from multiple people, are telling Acer what the problems are and how to resolve them and we are still receiving buggy revisions.Thank you for all your work with this and trying to help us all out. I am willing to get a 8pin clip and deal with the BIOS myself at this point, but I'm not that great at decoding it.

I've never had a computer that didn't work properly with Linux out of the box, from AMD K6 to Intel MacBooks, this is the first. I specifically purchased this as AMD support has always been good on Linux (personally using since Mandrake 8). There really isn't an excuse for bad bios programming, while windows 10 works decent now (also did odd things with v1.01), there can also be security implications from these bugs. As the other poster stated, Acer can at least follow industry standards. Slap win10 on it and sell it; get either Lenovo or HP.

Bugs still persist with bios 1.13 and 5.0+ kernels. Advanced touchpad doesn't work out the box like 4.19 and 4.20 did, new dmesg errors about pcie powersaving [use pcie_aspm=off to fix], complaints about not locating smbus and iommu too late in the boot (sometimes causing softlocks [fix with Ives args]), and acpi tables not all loading [11 successful]. These bugs persist, so should not be closed. I think someone with some handy bios skills should look at what Lenovo and HP have done with their bioses vs ours as their MBs [same] work well now. It's been over a year since these computers have been on the market without much in the way of Linux compatibility. I doubt Acer will bother to debug correctly as it works with Windows and that's the only thing they're concerned about supporting, unfortunately.

Can confirm with the pcie_aspm=off arg. Had to use it after upgrading to more recent kernels and seeing the complaints in dmesg [PCI 01.7, sometimes PCI 01.6, if not mistaken]. Only appears once during boot though, never after, and only with kernels 4.20 and newer.

Distro I'm running is Fedora 29 on an A315-41. Now under 4.19 kernel, no ivrs args needed, Touchpad works, secure boot, WiFi, etc. works. Overall, the most stable this laptop has ever been. Kernel 4.20, softlocks immediately upon boot, need to add ivrs args back and acpi goes to physical flat. Touchpad still works.

Ivrs workarounds no longer needed, but kernel will complain early on that it cannot find smbus and iommu, but will later in the boot process detect and load them (race condition?).

I finally updated to 1.13 bios. I also have the a315-41, not the 41g. Can confirm that it only loads 11 acpi tables.

Just took a look on the Acer website also. The new BIOS is almost double in size, maybe they actually added the correct acpi tables this time around. The same exact MB is used in some HP and Lenovo laptops and their issues subsided with recent BIOS updates, let's hope the same for us. As for my long-term test (since an earlier post), was running Debian stretch with the 4.18 kernel, updated amdgpu, libdrm, and had the ioacpi workarounds added to grub. It was quite stable, with some complaints if the screen blanked. It, however, was not 100%. Do not try 4.19 or 012019 amdgpu firmware with Debian, it was a complete fail. However, fedora with 4.19 works, but haven't tested it long-term. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776563 Title: Acer Aspire A315 IOAPIC failure on Ubuntu 18.04, kernel hangs, can't load, kernel freeze (AMD Ryzen 5/Radeon/Raven) / AMDGPU Hybrid crash Status in amd: Fix Released Status in Linux: Incomplete Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: CPU: Ryzen 5 2500U VGA: Radeon 535 Notebook: Acer Aspire A315 This is a brand new notebook on the market with Ryzen 5/Radeon.

FWIW...Last night, I upgraded Debian9 from stock kernel 4.9 -> 4.18 using debian-backports. Very important, forced the amd-gpu firmware to the backported version also. Have ivrs_ioapic[4]=00:14.0 ivrs_ioapic[5]=0:00.2 added to my grub config permanently. No boot errors and it is using the raven ridge dgpu drivers [DRM]. Suspend works a treat and left it on for almost 24hrs, no lockups. Runs cool, with the fan hardly coming on [low RPM]. Seems quite stable. This may be of help to anyone that needs a distro to use for the time being. According to my research, seems a lot of these issues are due to buggy BIOS acpi tables and lack of raven ridge dgpu support in the kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776563 Title: Acer Aspire A315 IOAPIC failure on Ubuntu 18.04, kernel hangs, can't load, kernel freeze (AMD Ryzen 5/Radeon/Raven) / AMDGPU Hybrid crash Status in amd: Fix Released Status in Linux: Incomplete Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: CPU: Ryzen 5 2500U VGA: Radeon 535 Notebook: Acer Aspire A315 This is a brand new notebook on the market with Ryzen 5/Radeon.

Hi All...Have A315-41-R8UU Bios v. 1.11. What I have tested: Debian 9 Stretch [with firmware] kernel 4.9x, xfce4...This boots, without issue, but haven't tested out it's stability long-term. No boot args needed. Brightness controls do not work. Also tested openSUSE Leap 15, no boot args, KDE edition. Brightness controls do not work. Will eventually freeze after some time idle. On both distros, get the same acpi bugs during boot. To try and mitigate some of the BIOS bugs, I turned off WoL, SATA ch1, Open Lid resume, Disable TPM (would get tpm errors on boot), D2D Recovery disabled, secure boot disabled, and basic touchpad. Oddly, when attempting to install xubuntu 18 LTS or debian 9 testing, that's when I get all the errors described above. I have added the ivrs_ioapic[4]=00:14.0 ivrs_ioapic[5]=0:00.2 to grub when trying to run the installers, and they will indeed run, at low resolution. Why would older kernels run without the boot params for acpi, while these newer kernels will not? Maybe this can help someone?

Public bug reported: After activating nvidia-173 video driver present in Ubuntu repositories, Ubuntu installs a different version of 'nvidia-settings' which is incompatible with nvidia-173 video driver. Nvidia-settings for nvidia-173 video driver is supposed to be the same version with the video driver, namely 173.xx.xx version, but instead it is always some other version, either 'nvidia-settings-304' or nvidia- settings-331 version. I managed to find a solution to link nvidia-173 video driver to its original 'nvidia-settings' version after downloading a .deb package which includes 'nvidia-settings' version 173.14.39, the same version with the latest driver for nvidia-173 package in Ubuntu 14.04.

And next, I extracted and copied the new nvidia-settings files from the .deb archive to /usr/lib/nvidia-173, and also added a new entry in /usr/share/applications for the new 'nvidia-settings' version 173.14.39: [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Exec=/usr/lib/nvidia-173/nvidia-settings Terminal=false Categories=HardwareSettings;System;Settings; Icon=/usr/share/icons/nvidia-settings-legacy-173xx.png Name=NVIDIA X Server Settings Comment=Configure NVIDIA X Server Settings It works as it is supposed to in Ubuntu 14.04 32bit, and it should also work for Ubuntu 13.10 or Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32bit. Never tested this solution for a 64bit release of Ubuntu. ** Affects: nvidia-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: incompatible nvidia-173 nvidia-settings -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313504 Title: Nvidia-173 video driver package comes with incompatible nvidia- settings version Status in “nvidia-settings” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After activating nvidia-173 video driver present in Ubuntu repositories, Ubuntu installs a different version of 'nvidia-settings' which is incompatible with nvidia-173 video driver.
