Subject2.6.13rc4 hang
Hello List,

I am having a problem 2.6.13rc4 described below on a HP Pavilion N5430
laptop.


1) If I cold boot with only 'lacpi' to run level 3 - shortly after I get
the login prompt the laptop freezes.

2) If I cold boot with 'lacpi acpi=off pci=noacpi,usepirqmask' the
system boots and does not freeze but when I try to play sound I get no
interrupts from my sound card.

3) If I now warm boot from step 2 with only 'lacpi' my laptop seems to
be stable and I have sound.

I did this several times to try and really verify the above scenarios.

Diff between dmesg output from step 1 and step 3

What is the best way to debug a hang? I there a way to turn on verbose
debugging at boot? Also why would
the hardware capabilities be different between a cold boot and a warm boot?

Thanks for any advice,
Steve
