Description of problem:Boot fails Acer Aspire AO522 on Fedora15 Beta. Aspire is new model netbook based on the C50 AMD dual core 1 GHz and HD 6250 APU. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.38.2-9.fc15.i686 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from USB key 2. 3. Actual results: Machine will boot but never reaches GDM. X Server starts then locks up. If it is booted to single user without rhgb and quiet it gets to a prompt. After a few seconds a stream of messages on the console ACPI Error: No Handler or method for GPExx, disabling event (20112/evgpe753) the GPE number seems to be incrementing. The screen displays a these messages very quickly, they are scrolling as fast as the screen can scroll. Once the messages start, it is impossible to use the console. This occurs in run level 3 as well Expected results: Normal boot Additional info: Tried acpi=no but this did not help. The machine displays lots of kernel ACPI notices as it boots so this doesn't seem to do anything. The bios was upgraded to the latest version.
I just booted the Fedora-15-Beta-x86_64-Live-Desktop which did not display the error. Note that the original bug occurred with the i686 version. The desktop comes up successfully and it looks good so far.
