I am sticked with 2.6.11 kernel.
This is long term problem.

Hardware: HP notebook nx8220 (some users report this problem on nx6120).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Simply boot on new HP notebooks (nx8220).

Comment 1 Mogens Kjaer 2005-11-11 08:59:57 UTC
I have a HP nw8240 with the same problem.

It boots fine with acpi=off, however, it
still gives the error message above, so I'm not sure that
this error message is relevant.

This is what it writes:
...
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 9 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Bridge: 0000:00:01.0
  IO window: 2000-2fff
  MEM window: c8800000-c8bfffff
  PREFETCH window: c0000000-c7ffffff
PCI: Bridge: 0000:00:1c.0
  IO window: disabled.
  MEM window: c8000000-c83fffff
  PREFETCH window: disabled.
...

Can you boot a newer kernel with acpi=off?

Comment 3 Petr Fischer 2005-11-11 11:41:05 UTC
"acpi=off" is no solution.

With acpi=off, this messages occurs:
----------------------
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 9 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Device 0000:00:1c.1 not available because of resource collisions
PCI: Device 0000:00:1c.1 not available because of resource collisions
----------------------

(See new 2 lines on end)

acpi=off is not solution for me at all - I need batery status etc...

Comment 4 Mogens Kjaer 2005-11-11 12:37:59 UTC
Does acpi=noirq work, as suggested in bug 169738?

Comment 5 Petr Fischer 2005-11-11 13:21:58 UTC
Yes - acpi=noirq works. PCI error messages (from Comment #3) still occurs, but
booting continues. Thanks.

Comment 6 Frank Trila 2005-11-24 11:03:02 UTC
for me with kernel 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 the system (HP nc6220) hangs on boot even
when I apply apci=noirq

Comment 7 Mogens Kjaer 2005-11-24 11:05:53 UTC

Is this a typo?

It should be acpi=noirq


Comment 8 Frank Trila 2005-11-24 11:10:14 UTC
YES it was a typo !! With acpi=noirq it works !!!
