Hello Debian Users,







Here’s the output of dmesg | grep ACPI:

I’m encountering an issue with my wife’s Dell laptop running Debian. During boot, the process halts with the following error message displayed: [   96.594541] ACPI Error: No pointer back to namespace node in package 00000000066678e2 (20240322/dsargs-301) [   96.595170] ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.PCI0.B0D4.PPCC due to previous error (AE_AML_INTERNAL) (20240322/psparse-529) Pressing the ESC key allows the system to continue booting normally, and the system doesn’t seem to exhibit any noticeable performance issues afterward.

There's a 90 second pause here. This pause happens _before_ the "problematic" lines are printed. So my guess would be that there's something else causing you an issue.
