does anyone know a fix for this?
Acer Aspire 5720 not booting successfully. The system hangs while booting on:
Specs:Starting udevd: /sbin/udevd --daemon
Triggering udev events: /sbin/udevtrigger
Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 (1.80GHz)
Chipset Intel 965GM
2GB DDR2 Ram
S-ATA Hard Disk Drive
ATI Mobility Radeon HD X2300
does anyone know a fix for this?
have you got a card reader? I've got a card reader in my philips x56. i think that's the problem. i'm trying to find a way to disable it.
ive got the same laptop and i confirm this
i'm getting stuck on the same message
There's a built-in Ricoh R5C822 5-in-1 car reader, but I don't think thats the problem
The only way I can figure out on how to boot the system, is by using the "nohotplug" option, but then the usb/video/sound/network etc. doesn't work.
My guess is that some sort off hardware chip is too new and not supported by the current linux kernel, probably the only option is to wait for a new kernel and hope that it supports whatever is wrong with these laptops.
Although if someone out there can help us out that would be great
to be honest don't know how to do it with a live cd
I have the same problem on a everex laptop.
If anyone has a work around that would be great.
it would be nice to see what is beeing accessed by udev before it freezes
so we can see wich device gives problems
On the Acer Aspire 5720 I booted with nohotplug and then ran these commands:
Then the hangup happens on this device:Code:/sbin/udevd --daemon --debug-trace --verbose log_priority=debug /sbin/udevtrigger
After that I rebooted and ranCode:pci:v00008086d00002A00sv00001025sd0000011Ebc06sc00i00
/sbin/modprobe -v -n pci:v00008086d00002A00sv00001025sd0000011Ebc06sc00 i00
to see what that device is and it happens to be
/lib/modules/2.6.21.5/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.ko
What next?
