Public bug reported:
Installed Ubuntu 8.10 amd64 Intrepid Release Candidate in a VMware
Fusion 2.0 VM on my MacBook Pro 4,1 (Penryn). After a successful and
uneventful installation the reboot hangs for several minutes with a
black screen (except for a static underscore in the top-left corner),
then the message "acpid: exiting" appears, after which the reboot or the
shutdown is almost immediate. The same happens when rebooting or
shutting down from the installed version of Intrepid.
I have already tried the "acpi=off" kernel boot option, but this doesn't
change anything. Just for the record: I have two other instances of
GNU/Linux installed in parallel VMware Fusion VMs on the same computer:
Debian testing (Lenny) and Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1, with 2.6.26 and 2.6.24
kernels, respectively, all amd64 versions; neither of these identically
configured VMs has the above problem. So, I'm inclined to blame the
2.6.27-7-generic kernel of Ubuntu Intrepid.
