Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: powernowd

I don't know this for sure, but I think this problem has something to do with 
powernowd.
A time ago, I selected parts and bought a new computer. I wanted to install 
Kubuntu 6.10 amd64 on it. But when I was starting the Live CD, at the rules:
[{numbers}.{numers}] ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x9F0 ctl 0xBF2 bmdma 0xE000 
irq 209
[{numbers}.{numbers}] ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x9F0 ctl 0xBF2 bmdma 0xE000 
irq 209

it stopped. So at first I thought that it was something with my SATA-II 
harddisk. But with the bootoptions noapic and nolapic I could start the cd. But 
at random moments it freezed. It did also with my 32 bit Ubuntu 6.06 live cd 
and also with ACPI APIC support disabled in the BIOS. The I thought it was the 
onboard video card and so I installed Kubuntu with the Kubuntu 6.10 alternate 
amd64 CD. That worked and I could also boot without problems. 
But last weekend I wanted to install GNOME. But after that my mouse 
disapeared(not if I executed startx in the recovery mode) and I had that weird 
freezings again. After a lot of tries(including a deletion of .kde(after I 
copied it(wich I managed to lose)) I saw that I had installed powernowd with 
the GNOME things. When I removed it, I losed the freezings. I don't now anymore 
how I returned the mouse, but that's also fine now. 

My system is:
Motherboard: Asus M2NPV-VM (with nForce 430 and GeForce 6150 onboard)
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3800+
RAM: 2 times Kingston 512MB ECC Dual Layer DDR2 667mHz
Hard disk: Maxtor DiamondMax 17 160GB SATA-II
My hardware report ID is:
251e2a05e06ef7ce9085755ceb86b5ec
