Paul Nickerson, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Title:
  Random Reboot if I Boot with ACPI On

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  If I boot up Ubuntu 11.10 without sending the apci=off parameter to
  the kernel in GRUB, then after not too long (usually less then 10
  minutes, always less than 20) my computer will randomly reboot. It's
  as if I forced the computer off by pressing the power button for a few
  seconds, then waited 2 seconds, then turned the computer back on. I
  have not noticed any trigger for the reboot; it seems completely
  random.

  I have tried these kernel parameters, but I have experienced the reboot on them all:
  acpi=ht
  pci=noacpi
  acpi=noirq
  pnpacpi=off
  noapic
  nolapic

  In troubleshooting before I figured out acpi=off worked, I tried swapping out lots of hardware. I narrowed it down to being either my motherboard or my CPU:
  Motherboard: EVGA Z68 SLI (model 130-SB-E685-KR) (Intel Z68 north bridge)
  CPU: Intel Core i7 2600 (Sandy Bridge)

  Attached are outputs of lspci -vvnn and dmidecode that I ran with ACPI
  on, before a random reboot stopped me. Also attached are outputs from
  uname -a, /proc/version_signature, and lsb_release -rd. /proc/acpi did
  not exist when I booted with ACPI.

  I have the linux-image-3.0.0-18-generic package, version 3.0.0-18.31,
  installed, but I have had this problem with the Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop
  and Alternate boot CDs, too.

  For a story of me troubleshooting this problem, check out this thread:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1942937

  Let me know if you need anything else from me, or want me to try
  anything. I would like to have ACPI working.

  Thank you.
