Crash on boot with latest ACPI versions

Crash on boot with latest ACPI versions

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi,

I've been experiencing crashes while booting with the latest ACPI
driver. Since I can't use a screendump program, I tried to take a
picture instead (sorry, bad quality):
http://www.xiph.org/~jm/acpi_crash.jpg

I'm using a Compaq Presario 1720CA laptop (PIII 1 GHz) under 2.4.20. The
stock kernel ACPI doesn't crash (though battery status doesn't work),
but the latest ACPI drivers (all versions less than 6-10 months old)
crash on boot every time.

Hi. Yeah, stock 2.4.20 doesn't use ACPI for PCI IRQ routing, which lets
it dodge any issues in this very important area. So, it's hanging at
that spot in your picture?

Can you put printk functions at the top and bottom of
acpi_evaluate_object? This will narrow it down to a hang in the
interpreter, or somewhere else. Also, if you haven't turned on debug
messages, please do so.

Regards -- Andy

Actually, I think it's a dsdt bug. I tried an updated one and it works
fine now (2.4.20 with APIC on). I guess the case is closed?
