User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; es-ES; rv:1.4.1)

Description of problem:
If I turn on acpi on grub, the system boots, the login screen appears
and when I try to login the machine freezes up.

If I turn acpi=off on grub the computer works like a charm.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. turn on acpi on grub
2. reboot
3. login screen appears
4. write my username + ENTER
5. write my password + ENTER   

Actual Results:  System freezes up

Expected Results:  Gnome initializing screen should be visible and
running.

Comment 1 Paco Avila 2003-11-13 11:16:10 UTC
With this kernel arguments the system don't freezes up:

rhgb acpi=on pci=noacpi

The magic is mix acpid=on with pci=noacpi

Comment 2 Len Brown 2004-03-24 08:16:39 UTC
can you attach the dmesg and /proc/interrupts from the
success and failure cases?  note that booting single
users should be sufficient to get this info.

Also, any change with updated kernel?

thanks,
-Len


Comment 3 Len Brown 2004-03-24 18:54:59 UTC
does this still happen with rhgb disabled?

Comment 4 Sergio Basto 2004-03-24 19:32:09 UTC
try boot with nolapic, if it work like a charme is a duplicated bug
denoted by apic victims,  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269

Comment 5 David Lawrence 2004-09-29 19:39:54 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
