What kind of CPU does that machine have?
(In reply to comment #2) > What kind of CPU does that machine have? It's a basic Pentium 4 running at 2.8 GHz. The motherboard is Intel D865PERL. Basic vanilla genuine Intel hardware -- all Linux kernels run on it but not this one.
Matthew Garrett pointed me at a patch for a regression in ACPI yesterday. I've started a scratch build with this patch applied. Could those with an impacted machine please try this kernel when it finishes building and let us know the results? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3624930
My apologies, I pasted the wrong link to the scratch build. This is the one that should be tested: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3625177
This should be fixed now.
