Paul Nickerson, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973933 Title: Random Reboot if I Boot with ACPI On Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: If I boot up Ubuntu 11.10 without sending the apci=off parameter to the kernel in GRUB, then after not too long (usually less then 10 minutes, always less than 20) my computer will randomly reboot. It's as if I forced the computer off by pressing the power button for a few seconds, then waited 2 seconds, then turned the computer back on. I have not noticed any trigger for the reboot; it seems completely random. I have tried these kernel parameters, but I have experienced the reboot on them all: acpi=ht pci=noacpi acpi=noirq pnpacpi=off noapic nolapic In troubleshooting before I figured out acpi=off worked, I tried swapping out lots of hardware. I narrowed it down to being either my motherboard or my CPU: Motherboard: EVGA Z68 SLI (model 130-SB-E685-KR) (Intel Z68 north bridge) CPU: Intel Core i7 2600 (Sandy Bridge) Attached are outputs of lspci -vvnn and dmidecode that I ran with ACPI on, before a random reboot stopped me. Also attached are outputs from uname -a, /proc/version_signature, and lsb_release -rd. /proc/acpi did not exist when I booted with ACPI. I have the linux-image-3.0.0-18-generic package, version 3.0.0-18.31, installed, but I have had this problem with the Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop and Alternate boot CDs, too. For a story of me troubleshooting this problem, check out this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1942937 Let me know if you need anything else from me, or want me to try anything. I would like to have ACPI working. Thank you.
