Hi Marcelo,

-rc2 seems really fine to me.

But I noticed a strange message at boot time during the PCI IRQ routing through
ACPI, and I'm not sure whether it's an info, a warning or an error :

ACPI: Interpreter enabled
ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: System [ACPI] (supports S0 S3 S4 S5)
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (00:00)
PCI: Probing PCI hardware (bus 00)
Disabling VIA memory write queue (PCI ID 0305, rev 03): [55] 8d & 1f -> 0d
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0._PRT]
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA] (IRQs 3 4 5 7 *9 10 11 12)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKB] (IRQs 3 4 5 7 9 *10 11 12)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] (IRQs 3 4 *5 7 9 10 11 12)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKD] (IRQs 3 4 5 7 *9 10 11 12)
ACPI: Embedded Controller [EC0] (gpe 1)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0.PPB_._PRT]
ACPI: Power Resource [PCR0] (off)
ACPI: Power Resource [PCR1] (off)
schedule_task(): keventd has not started
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
=> this one  !!

PCI: Probing PCI hardware
PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing

And here is the portion of .config related to ACPI. I can send the whole
config too, but that doesn't seem useful to me to pollute LKML for the rest...

# CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI is not set
# ACPI Support
CONFIG_ACPI=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_HT_ONLY is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=m
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=m
# CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_RELAXED_AML=y

Cheers,
Willy

I'm having problems.  had them with -pre10 as well, posted here, but th=
ey
somehow didn't appear in the list.

Here's the short story: No network (3c509) because the card gets IRQ 22=
 (or
something) and doesn't like it, no USB, no firewire, no X11 (yeah, shou=
ld
have recompiled the NVIDIA drivers, duh), and a total crash on shutdown=

I did, this causes "APIC error on CPU0:40" or something (this wasn't
syslogged and I don't remember exactly).

Does that help?
