[Bug 465784] Re: [karmic regression] live CD finds eth and wlan devices only with acpi=off on acer aspire 7730Z

 

Heiko Selber, 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

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [karmic regression] live CD finds eth and wlan devices only with
  acpi=off on acer aspire 7730Z

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: acpid

  When I try to boot the live system of the karmic (9.10) desktop CD on
  my acer aspire 7730Z laptop, it fails to activate ethernet and wlan
  interfaces.

  It works only when I boot with acpi=off.

  The jaunty (9.04) live CD activates the interfaces straightforward
  with acpi on.

  I can provide additional information (logs etc.) if required.

  I don't know it acpid is the correct package; I tried my best to find
  one.

  BTW: Booting the 9.10 live system takes more than 10 minutes; 9.04
  comes up in less than 3 minutes. I don't know if this is related.
