every second booting process hangs up - opensuse 11.3

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

HP Compaq 615 Laptop (AMD DualCore, 64bit, ATI Radeon HD 3200)

  • When I start the Laptop, the booting process hang up.
    The last booting lines are:
    “starting udevd: Loading drivers, configuring devices: 8.561784] shpchp 0000:00:01.0: Cannot reserve MMIO region”
    This boot process don’t break up - the Laptop hangs up (freeze) so that I have to do a hard reset.

  • After the hard reset the Laptop is booting normaly. When I shutdown the Labtop after this and power up again, the same problems appears.

The Laptop has a fresh OpenSuse 11.3 installation.
The only thing I’ve configrate is the bootoptions. I’ve ad to boot-options: “napic nolapic no=msi”. This is because, if i don’t type in this boot-options OpenSuse will not start (only with a black screen).

So, please help! What is wrong?

There appears to be a problem with cold boots. Warm boots seem to work for you. You have any odd equipment attached?

You can make those options permanent if you don’t want to type each time. Just ask.

I don’t know if this is the point. Because, when i shutdown the laptop and power up the system after some seconds the laptop is still warm.

Only USB-Mouse and Network-Cable

Thanks, I have written this options in grubloader over Yast-Bootloader.

Well your computer might actually be cold when you do a cold boot and warm when you do a warm boot, but temperature does not have anything to do with this statement.

A cold boot, as it is called, is what occurs when you first turn on your computer, but not because it is cold, but rather because of the amount of hardware checking performed by the BIOS. While a warm boot refers to when your computer is already on and you do a Restart to the system. Your BIOS does not perform the same amount of hardware checking and there are other differences. A warm boot is designed to take less time, checking and changing the minimum to restart your PC. It is also possible to force a cold boot as if your computer had just been turned on, even if the temperature within is not cold. lol!

Thank You,

Just a drive-by thought: try it without the mouse attached, might be improperly seeing it as an unknown device

No, it doesn’t work.

Now I tried again to install OpenSuse with safe Kernel settings. But it freezes again. Now I can’t see anymore a regularity. Sometimes it freezes 5 times, then I can boot 2 times without a freeze… and so on… It makes me crazy :frowning:

I wrote a Bug-Report:

During the installtion of OpenSuse 11.3 on a “HP Compaq 615” Laptop (AMD
DualCore, 64bit, ATI Radeon HD 3200) the installtion-process want to restart.
During this boot-process the system freeze.
When i make a hard reset and let the system boot again, the boot-process works.
But after this, the installed system has this bug every time. Sometimes the
booting-process freezes, sometimes it works. I don’t know why. It seems to be
no regularity.

I suggest you go back to 11.2. Leave a small partition with 11.3 so that you can test when (if) this
issue is solved, tracking the bugzilla. Or 11.4 in half a year time.

OpenSuse 11.2 does also not not work.

I wonder if the “ATI Radeon HD 3200” is causing the black screen that forced you to impose the constraints “napic nolapic no=msi”?

If you take those out, can you then boot and at the boot screen press the key/numeral 3 and then press enter and – then does it boot to a console screen login prompt?
