@Darko: What I meant was that not being able to install or run Ubuntu can not be caused by this kernel warning, but if you want to avoid the warning you may have to take a look at your BIOS. Gigabyte sometimes has hidden options that you can uncover by pressing alt-F1 from the BIOS main screen.

Hi Ivar Regarding your observation: what kernel are you running now? It would be extremely beneficial if you could go back to an old kernel that works. What you are saying seems to mean that even if there is a BIOS bug (as claimed by the kernel acpi devs), scaling used to work for you in Linux.

Brian, this BIOS bug should not prevent you from booting, it just makes the powernow-k8 exit with an error, so you don't get cpu scaling. If you'd like to contribute to the report, please look at the info I provided above. What matters is the BIOS info. Just to make sure, you may try this
