I also have a Dell Inspiron 1501 and am running Kubuntu 7.10 32-bit (i386): Linux xander 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
Somewhere else I read that warnings like these are caused by running a 32-bit Ubuntu on a 64-bit system: [ 0.516000] ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC [ 0.604000] PCI: BIOS BUG #81[49435000] found [ 0.628000] PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:05.0 [ 0.628000] PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:05.0 I tried different kernel switches and combinations thereof, e.g. - pci=nomsi - pci=nomsi noapic nolapic - noapic nolapic - acpi=force - acpi=force irqpoll but to no avail. I cannot restart the system of shot down with switch-off. I alsways have to manually switch off the system. BTW, I am running the latest firmware with high precision timer and tried switching it on as well as off. No difference in behaviour. I really don't know what else to try. ** Attachment added: "/var/log/dmesg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10346815/dmesg -- Shutdown problem in Dell Inspiron E1505 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94161 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
