Re: [Xen-users] ACPI in unstable



I have been able to test this on two machines (an athlon 64 and a Pentium M) 
with the same results in 2.6.16 in xen.  I can't test in a
vanilla kernel at this time.  The odd part is that I can disable all of the 
ACPI triggers (button, fan, temp, etc)  just as long as the
base ACPI support is compiled in, networking works.

Hi Jason,

I have seen this behaviour as well;  I though it had to do with
disabling the APIC, rather than APCI. To boot without apci, you can just
specify noapci on the kernel command line.

I'll verify locally a little later on with a noacpi boot.

cheers,
Ian.

Hey guys, may have another one but Im not sure if this is a xen thing or a 
linux thing.   If I
disable ACPI in my Dom0 kernel, none of my NICs work. They all show up, but if 
you try to send or
receive traffic you get a NETDEV WATCHDOG timeout error. I have found a bug on 
the Debian lists
listing something similar in regards to nics stopping after a suspend.  Could 
someone else try to
compile a custom Dom0 kernel and only remove ACPI support and see if you have 
the same trouble?
For reference, my NICS are eepro100's and via Rhine II's.   xm info says
