Bug#497051: linux-image-3.6.26-1-686, bug on ACPI?
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-3
Severity: normal
Hi all!
Yesterday (8-28-08) I upgraded Debian Lenny to the lastest kernel in
the repository. Exactly, the 2.6.26-1-686 kernel.
I started to install the Ati Catalyst and the MadWifi driverson the
new kernel, when I found a problem that looked familiar for me (I
suffered it on the old 2.6.24-x-486 kernel. I don't remember the
number where "x". This kernel was the default on the netinst for
32bits. The kernel on this occasion dissapeared by installing the
2.6.24-x-686 kernel).
Ok, let's go with the problem (using 2.6.26-1-686 kernel):
When I start the system, I have to press all time a key on my keyboard
(for example "Alt") for the system continues booting up. If I don't
press any key the system looks frozen and the booting stops (when I'm
running X occurs the same. I have to move the mouse or press all time
a key for the system continues running normally) and continues booting
when I press a key again. If I stop pressing a key when a proccess is
running (or starting during the boot up), this proccess continues
running until the end of the operation.
At the moment the solutions are the following:
1) Boot up with acpi=off makes the system running normally. But
with this I don't have wifi, battery status, sensors, etc.
2)Stay with the previous kernel. The version 2.6.25-2-686. This
kernel works perfect for me. (I use this solution at the moment).
My system is: Acer Aspire 5102WLMi (AMD Turion X2 @ 1.6GHz, 1GB DDR
memory) running Debian Lenny up to date. Now I use 2.6.25-2-686
kernel instead the 2.6.26-1-686 kernel.
I think the problem is related to the ACPI.
Sorry for my bad English and thank you.
Goodbye.
