A few annotations: With no additional boot parameters, ubuntu freezes at * Loading ACPI modules... (only pressing the power button works).
Using the quiet option, there is a further error message: PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge ???:?? [a few numbers] But none of the options above (i.e. pci=noacpi etc.) work except acpi=off. According to http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/samsung.html, it seems to work with Debian and OpenSuSE 10.1: http://oogametogamie.dyndns.org/x60/laptop-samsung-x60.html http://www.schusdziarra.de/Linux/X60.html I have tried Bios versions 05xa, 07xa and 08xa (the newest Bios), but no changes. I have attached the output of dmesg (the error messages of sdhci, introduced in 2.6.17-10 are already reported). Thanks for any help!
