Hello,
when I reboot my laptop the BIOS complains about a keyboard controller
failure and timer interrupts not working. On the BIOS password screen
the keyboard doesn't work. If I disable the BIOS password the system
hangs a bit later on the POST screen. I tried all reboot methods via the
kernel command line without success. I saw this problem with Debian
Woody's precompiled 2.4.18 kernel, self compiled Debian 2.4.20 sources
and Linux 2.4.21-rc1+ACPI patch. This problem only occurs if
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC is enabled. With CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC disabled it
reboots just fine.
My guess is that it's a BIOS bug as I've never had this problem on other
machines before. I found a workaround: disable the local APIC before
rebooting. I don't really know how it works. Just calling
disable_local_APIC wasn't enough, so I copied a bit more code from
apic_pm_suspend (arch/i386/kernel/apic.c:465) to machine_restart
(arch/i386/kernel/process.c:369). I'm pretty sure that this is not the
proper way to do it but it works here. A patch against 2.4.21-rc1 can be
found at the end of this email.
Best regards,
Felix
