Hi, Ben. I tried going to the BIOS and restoring the "Safe Defaults". Unfortunately, it didn't fix anything. To make matters worse, I tried reducing the speed of the memory (the latency from 2 to 3) and I got the same problems as before: an system very hard to use (not so say unusable).
I left the computer loading the CD from today for a whole half an hour. It even loaded X, the DPMS's standby of the monitor acted and the system was still accessing the disks. The funny thing is that I used to have this problem with the kernel from kernel.org, but now I can use it without any problems, and with all modules working. I have not tried using them all at the same time, but I think that I can. I would guess that the interrupt sent is generated by the Promise controller, as I'm not using Firewire, nor USB right now... Would you want me to git bisect any kernel to find which patch worked with, say, Dapper, but not with Gutsy? I can do that. Kind regards, Rogério Brito. -- Can't boot unless passing "irqpoll" option to the kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123617 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
