[Joseph Salisbury <joseph.salisbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any
development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore,
we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further
testing. This is such a request.

We are approaching release and would like to confirm if this bug is
still present. Please test again with the latest development kernel and
indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.


** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Tags added: kernel-request-3.11.0-7.14

Title:
  Unable to boot system in EFI unless acpi=off & "quiet splash" deleted
  from grub

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  MSI notebook, Model GT70-0NC-008US; tag under the battery shows GT70
  -0NC-494US Am not running as a dual boot install. I unable to boot
  this system unless acpi=off and "quiet splash" is deleted from grub. I
  am running this as the only OS, NOT a dual boot. I am able to boot,
  install and run 12.04 Precise 64 bit on this system, BIOS in legacy
  mode for install and running from HDD. Following steps in Debugging
  ACPT - Ubuntu Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI) I have
  updated to the latest BIOS on the box.

  WORKAROUND: Use legacy boot mode.

  WORKAROUND: With 12.10 installed to HDD tried booting with all options
  given in the Wiki and with acpi=off and "quiet splash" deleted, system
  boots ok and into usable environment.

  With acpi=noirq and "quiet splash" deleted system starts to boot and stops with the following as last line:
  [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0x9904: Init table command not found: 0xA9

  With pnpacpi=off and "quiet splash" deleted system starts to boot and stops with the following as last line, same as above:
  [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0x9904: Init table command not found: 0xA9

  With noapic and "quiet splash" deleted, system starts to boot and stops with the following as last line, same as above:
  [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0x9904: Init table command not found: 0xA9

  With nolapic and "quiet splash" deleted, system starts to boot and stops with the following as last line, same as above:
  [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: 0x9904: Init table command not found: 0xA9

  In the troubleshooting steps I was unable to suspend or hibernate the
  system so am unable to supply a /var/log/kern.log.0 file.

  I am unable to include a tarball of /proc/acpi directory as that
  directory doesn't exist.
