Laptop alienware m17x quad core Q9000 , 4G, g260m (internal gfx9400 disabled)
opensuse x64 11.1 kernel linux-2.6.27.29-0.1.1 (repo-update)
udev #128 , 128-9.7.1 (repo-update)
wifi Broadcom (on usb 1.4)
On first boot after plug-in in the ac power, booting on linux end with a freeze/kernel panic, the only solution is to push the power off button. Then, I can reboot and shut-down,any times, without problems.
Switching from battery to ac power definitively trigger the situation.
Nota : if I first boot in vista, I have no problem.
something really interesting : if a manage to ctl-alt-sup at the right moment, I can avoid the freeze (i.e. the laptop abort and reboot normaly).
I tried with acpi=off : boot ok but X11 fail to start. Beside, the next boot on linux without acpi=off end with a freeze too.
It’s hard to tell what’s really creating this (log to fast) but I’m suspecting acpi,udevd, and/or usb ; maybe the wifi broadcom module.
comparing with a ‘good’ boot.msg file, the last valid lines look to be :

btw, the laptop goes into suspend but doesn’t wake up (blank screen, no keyboard). On suspend in runlevel 3, wakes up but blank screen and no wifi.

Any ideas ???
If you need more data, just ask.
Thanks.
