 Posted: Mon Jul 26, 2010 10:39 am Post subject: Boot problem on kernel 2.6.34-r1 (seems acpi problem) |
 |
|
Hi folks,
I'm using a masked version (2.6.33-r1) that works very well at all...finally i saw a 2.6.34-r1 stable and so
i got it, but after all the usually boot progressions, the system freezes itself on some acpid messages (they don't sound like the errors).
I just copied the .config from kernel-2.6.33-r1 and i compiled it 
My system is a MacBook-pro of 2009 (intel duo)
Thanks in advance
Gianni

sorry, wrong. The result is a broken kernel when you do it.
Go back,

A much safer upgrading method is to copy your config as previously shown, and then simply run make menuconfig.
|
enter make oldconfig,- can be used, follow the prompts, however;
Note that this is generally unsafe -- too many changes between every kernel release for this to be a reliable upgrade path.
re-compile, re-post

| I have the same problem with a Phenom II x4 Chip. The boot process may stop at any time and some time a hit on keyboard can wake it up. I didn't use old configure file but reconfigured the new kernel for sketch. |

Hi All,
I notice that my system stop with a message
Clocksource tsc unstable
Switching to clocksource hpet
After I deselect the
Processor type and feartures --->
[ ] High Resolution Timer support
The kernel now works well.
By the way, I also rebuild udev. |

Do you read the message from the file, " /var/log/message"
BTW, I also disable hpet in boot loader by
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo root=/dev/sda2 hpet=disable ro
in /boot/grub/menu.lst
One consequence I met is that my system clock stops when it goes to sleep. So I have to synchronize the system time to hardware time by
# /sbin/hwclock -s
whenever waking it up.
But soon I find that install ntp synchronizing the system time to servers is better idea. |

There are problems with Dynamic Ticks and HPET in recent kernels.
Disable the "Tickless System (Dynamic Ticks) " option in your kernel
config to work around this. |

It doesn't work for me when "High Resolution Timer support" is enabled in kernel, although "tickless system" and HPET are disabled. |

Could be a combination of both HPET/tickless and hrtimer. There was a bug report about
issues like these on LKML a few days ago.
Do you have an AMD system with C1E enabled? I've had similar issues which vanished when
C1E support was disabled in the BIOS. |

Turning off C1E on motherboard seems solving the problem. |
