I tried the hardy-proposed kernel on top of my intrepid installation.
The machine boots, but the resulting (hybrid) system has poor graphics
resolution and in general is not very usable. Probably, there are
incompatibilities between the 2.6.24 kernel and the rest of the system

Unforunately, this problem still exists on my Dell Inspiron 531, and I
still have to apply the acpi=off boot option to allow my system to boot,
even after upgrading all my packages to hardy-proposed.
We obviously have the same machine.. why isn't the fix working?

@gbon -- excellent thanks. No need to appologise, its not something we
would naturally look for until we are close to the trigger. Thank you
for all your debug efforts even though you no longer needed to use
Hardy.
From the cpuinfo we can clearly see we do not get two cpus in any Hardy

@andy
here are the info you requested, relative to 2.6.24-19 (last good for
hardy), 2.6.24-24 (your latest build) and 2.6.27-11 (intrepid current).
Your analysis is very accurate. I'm sorry for not noticing the missing
core in the 2.4.24-19 kernel. that would have made things much easier.

have gotten into a spot of bother because we were unable to start the

Ok, I think I understand why this regression has appeared. It looks
very much that the hardy kernels are not correctly finding and booting
the second cpus on AMD x2. This appears to have been separatly reported
under bug #213011, which was FIX_COMMITTED _only_ in Intrepid.

@Arv3n
in fact it works on my hw too. unfortunately disabling acpi has unpleasant
side effects, e.g. no cpufreq support. I just prefer to run Intrepid.

your kernel pauses twice around the sysfs_create_link() call, as you can see in
the photos.

Hi Andy,
I'll try your kernel in the next few days.
In the meantime, I've been wondering about the timestamps in the
2.6.24-23 kernel output: the kernel stops after a few seconds, but the
timestamp reads 180: does that mean 3 minutes? If this is the case, the
kernel timer is off by a factor ten
Hi.
I've found a workaround: add acpi=off to grub.
I'll test the kernel in a sec., currently installing 8.04.2.

From the two sets of photos you have attached the behaviour looks the

Hi gbon,
the kernel should be installable. Only downside probably is that this
probably has to be done by getting the deb packages manually and using
dpkg instead of apt. But I would be grateful if you could do that since
I would like to resolve any potential regressions in Hardy.
