Description of problem: Installed Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso ran fine from cd. Then installed to hard drive. It booted and ran fine. Then I did all the package updates, about 392. Now on reboot it says powernow-k8 no psb or acpi _pss objects and fails. This is the same whether it runs in normal or recovery mode. Once or twice it booted without problem. The motherboard is a KV8 Pro with an Athlon 64 processor 2gh. The bios was updated to version 26, the last release. The Cool'n'Quiet technology was set at Auto. None of this had any effect. This machine was previously running windows XP without any problem. Doing a google search on powernow-k8 it turns up a number of instances of this issue, but none appear on your bug list (for example: http://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=64192.0;wap2), so I'm reporting it here. I'm going to try and install Debian to see if they have the same issue. If the problem persists, it is back to Windows.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
