Grzegorz G., thank you for testing the beta BIOS F5G. Just to clarify, using the beta BIOS F5G, you undid the WORKAROUND but the computer still hung while booting?
** Description changed: - On my new PC something is wrong with ACPI support under Linux. + My system won't boot. (As a side effect it detects only one CPU core and + won't shut down completely, I have to hold power button for few seconds + to power PC off.) - WORKAROUND: I have to boot it with acpi=off and nolapic, without any of - those two system won't boot. (As a side effect it detects only one CPU - core and won't shut down completely, I have to hold power button for few - seconds to power PC off.) + WORKAROUND: Boot with acpi=off and nolapic. My configuration: Ubuntu 12.04 (upgraded from 11.10) Processor AMD FX(tm)-4100 Quad-Core RAM 8,00 GB Graphic Gigabyte GV-N56GOC-1GI (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560) Mainboard Gigabyte GA-870A-USB3 Disk ATA OCZ-AGILITY3 (SSD) According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI I tried booting it with acpi=ht (also with acpi=ht AND nolapic), but not to avail. Quote: 'If acpi=off works and acpi=ht fails, then the issue is in the ACPI table parsing code itself, or perhaps the SMP code. ' I will also attach files mentioned on the DebuggingACPI wiki page. - --- + --- AcpiTables: - + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
