HP netbook only boots with ACPI off

Hi, are you able to post the right sequence of kernal message you get when your pc start with ACPI=ON? So we can see what happens. Thanks many.

It I just let it go it freezes at the Ubuntu screen. If I get it to display it does the following:

fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
/dev/sda2: clean, 166780/1406727 files. 879920/5675360 blocks
/dev/sda:1 recovering journal

*starting configure virtual network devices[OK
*stopping configure virtual network devices[OK

skipping profile in /etc/apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox

Ok, I was not very clear! Sorry! Can you post the part of the following files regarding the start where ubuntu freezes?

/var/log/message
/var/log/kern.log

Thanks many.

Hi

I am new to this business, so please be patient. Do you mean the logs in the
log viewer?

This is what I got in the system log when trying to log on on normally:
Jul 6 21:42:01 frodo kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.
Jul 6 21:42:01 frodo rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd"
swVersion="4.6.4" x-pid="422" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] exiting on
signal 15.

This is what seems to be in the kernel log:

Jul 6 21:42:01 frodo kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.

I hope this is the right information, I apologise if I got this completely
wrong.

By the way, I love Ubuntu when it works on my netbook, but I only have
little experience with configuring operating systems

Thanks again for your help

Rainer
