Asus Z9200km laptop with AMD Turion 64 MT-37 locks up during early
kernel boot in ACPI.
I compiled ACPI with debug messages turned on.
I typed this in from a photograph:
CPU: AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology MT-37 stepping 02
tbxface-0109 [02] load_tables : ACPI Tables successfully acquired
Parsing all Control Methods:
Table [DSDT](id 0005) - 1084 Objects with 56 Devices 344 Methods 26
Regions
ACPI Namespace successfully loaded at root ffffffff8053cb00
evxfevnt-0091 [03] enable : _
It is locked at the underbar above. Eventually the CPU fan goes into
high mode. The only way to recover is a power cycle.
This is with kernel gentoo-sources 2.6.17-r2. 2.6.17 and 2.6.11-r11
behave similarly.
Any thoughts?
Unplug your USB devices before booting the laptop.
It is a very well discussed ACPI bug on google and you can get some fixed
ACPI tables to compile into the kernel.
