The website for this motherboard: http://www.foxconnchannel.com/product/Motherboards/detail_overview.aspx?ID =en-us0000327 I am using latest BIOS, which seems to allow CPU Frequency scaling to function. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kernel 2.6.25.10-86 Running a 2.6.26-git9 kernel appears to fix (some?) of this in that ACPI: Failed To Attach Device messages are gone and PC suspends, resumes, and reboots, still get checksum error relating to tbautils. Behaviour is the same with ACPI 1, 2, or 3. How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Foxconn G33M or G33M-S motherboard. 2. Boot Fedora 3. Try a suspend, resume reboot. Actual results: Depdning on your kernel, either resume no worky, reboot no worky, and in all cases, ugly kernel error messages. Expected results: Suspend, resume, reboot all worky, kernel gives no error messages. Additional info: I've attached a lot of all my kernel related messages. I've attempted to ask Foxconn about this, and they recommended I remove all of my RAM and see if the problem continues.

The only obvious remaining bug is that the machine fails to reboot after a suspend to RAM? Does booting with reboot=b as a kernel command option work around this?

I've sent you my ACPI dump. Foxconn is apparently working on some kind of a patch, and has stated that they will make an official announcement over why this happened on Monday. They've been frantically working on getting the BIOS to boot up Linux and correctly interface with it on their test machines. >From what I can tell an improved BIOS ROM is on the way? I will post link to the ROM when they put it on their site so we can close this bug.

It needs to be passed as a kernel option from grub.

American Megatrends (AMI) shipped the defective BIOS, if yours is an Award BIOS, this is not an issue. http://izanbardprince.wordpress.com/2008/07/28/foxconn-says-acpi-issues- are-amis-fault-is-having-them-repair-the-code/ I've been told to expect the Foxconn fix within a matter of days, users of ASUS or MSI motherboards are encouraged to contact them for the fix and reference that Foxconn has confirmed that the AMI BIOS is defective.

The issue appears to be that Linux doesn't clear the WAK_STS flag on resume, which causes the BIOS to think that a reset is actually a resume. I've got a test board now, so will check this later today. Should be a trivial patch.
