Today I accidentally booted 2.6.15-25, since it was still my default. It hung somewhere after the fsck (can't see where exactly, since on-screen logging verbosity has decreased a lot). Booting into 2.6.17 did also show the fsck screen for a short time, then going to X. So: acpi=force makes 2.6.15-25 fail to boot...
This makes it somewhat more complicated: 2.6.17 -> crash 2.6.15 -> boot (without acpi features) 2.6.17 acpi=force -> boot 2.6.15 acpi=force -> hang 2.6.x-pre-15 -> boot, with acpi features, without the need for acpi=force. -- acpi=force required for Acer Aspire 1315 https://launchpad.net/bugs/83111 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
