# HG changeset patch # User Edouard Gomez <ed.gomez@free.fr> # Date 1291821505 -3600 # Node ID 4d8b4b3a1d3c6034b86889fac38dd53e6579bb42 # Parent 53e51000d59963c8ca408db4db619d2c82374c5e x86: Dell Precision WorkStation 690 reboot quirk
This Dell workstation gets stuck on reboot unless booted with the paremeter reboot=bios.
This patch has been submitted 3 times already to X86 ARCHITECTURE maintainers w/o any feedback so far. Trying my chance on the LKML.
Patch is against 2.6.36.1
