This seems to be now fixed by using the proper pci config accesses.

Here's results with vanilla 2.6.19-rc4 (gcc version 3.4.5) ...

1) PCI access mode (Any) ... FAILED

2) PCI access mode (MMConfig) ... FAILED

3) PCI access mode (Direct) ... PASSED

4) PCI access mode (BIOS) ... PASSED

Looks like it's still having problem with Dell Optiplex GX620.

Thanks,
Jeff.

Update:

2.6.19-rc4-git11 does _not_ fix the problem.

But now it doesn't matter if Cardbus/PCMCIA is compiled in or not.

What also matters is a setting in the BIOS:

If i set instead of

Power -> 
   SpeedStep ->
      Mode for AC -    "Max Performance"
      Mode for Battery "Max Battery"

to

Power -> 
   SpeedStep ->
      Mode for AC -    "Max Battery"
      Mode for Battery "Max Performance" 

he _does_ boot from battery but also on AC...

Also the problem is now(?) not very reliable. Sometimes the boot is successful 
even on battery and then the laptop works without a glitch.
This makes it not easier to isolate the problem.

About the reverts of some patches: I'm not, lets say it carefull, an very   
experienced git user;-) 
What i get is:

# git-revert -n cf4c6a2f27f5db810b69dcb1da7f194489e8ff88
First trying simple merge strategy to revert.
Simple revert fails; trying Automatic revert.
Auto-merging arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c
merge: warning: conflicts during merge
ERROR: Merge conflict in arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c
....


Is somewhere a howto-revert-patches-in-kernel-git-for-raw-beginners?

so with the new settings it boots properly in either AC or battery mode with forced "lapic"?
Strange, one would expect this to refer to APM settings, but who knows...

Please test if booting with "processor.max_cstate=1" makes any difference

Please test if building with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n makes any difference.

Also, please make sure that booting with "apm=off" makes no difference --
there is a bug where the APM code is not currently disabled in ACPI mode,
and who knows what effect that may have...

Documentation/git-bisect.txt is what you want -- though if you can't
reliably reproduce the failure it may not easily lead you to the failure.

Also, it may be a good use of time to make darn sure that booting 2.6.18
with forced "lapic" when on battery does not fail.  ie. is this really
a regression -- of did forcing the lapic on this box never work reliably?

First i made shure again that 2.6.18.2 works..... damn shure.

--> NO.

--> NO.

Ahem. All previous tests was done with CONFIG_APM=n. So i tested with 
CONFIG_APM=y. Does not help. It makes no difference booting with "apm=off" 
or not.

Another check:

The laptop muste be powered on on_battery to trigger the problem. If i 
disconnect AC at the grub-prompt the problem does _not_ occur.

The laptop has two batteries. The utraybay battery is nearly dead now, but 
it makes no difference if removed.

This problem is not very important for me, i just wondering why is only 
occurs if running on battery. I would be happy, if someone can explain 
this;-) 

The laptop itself is rock stable (if he boots), never seen any glitch or 
instability (with lapic). I don't know exactly when i started using lapic. 
Its a long time ago (last year?), i have read the message that i can 
enable this so i did. No problems until 2.6.19-rc1....

If nobody can reproduce this, i don't care about the problem. There is also 
a life without lapic:) But maybe it shows a problem anywhere else, timing 
or whatever, so i'm willing to test everything against.

So if someone is interesting to reproduce the problem, i repeat the 
conditions that must be met:

1.: Laptop must be powered on with AC removed (on battery)

2.: BIOS-Setting must be
  power --> Intel Speedstep --> Mode on Battery --> "Max Battery"

3.: Kernel command line must have "lapci"

4.: Kernel must be >= 2.6.19-rc1

that are not yet fixed in Linus' tree.

If you find your name in the Cc header, you are either submitter of one
of the bugs, maintainer of an affectected subsystem or driver, a patch
of you caused a breakage or I'm considering you in any other way possibly
involved with one or more of these issues.

Due to the huge amount of recipients, please trim the Cc when answering.
