Sorry, I didn't know that theres a procedure to report ACPI errors.

I've first changed from nvidia to nv since nvidia might be ugly support-wise.

I've added output from

- Output of 'uname -a'
- Output of 'sudo lspci -vv'
- Output of 'sudo lspci -vvn'
- Output of 'sudo dmidecode'
- kern.log[.0]

I've also tried to hibernate and nearly got a fine resume back to desktop. Nearly because my system hung ca. 2 secs after entering my password. I got to enter it, got back to my desktop, could even see nautilus and clicked onto the /var folder when the display freezed. The Num key still changed the NUM Status LED from keyboard but neither CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE nor CTRL-ALT-F[1-6] worked. I did a restart to a life cd and saved kern.log and kern.log.0 (dunno which one you need, one has lots of CPU ACPI Errors). kern.log must be from resume from hibernate, since I didn't restart from normal system (thought kern.log would get lost) but a life cd.

If you need additional info - just write.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I am changing the package to acpi-support'. Please include the following additional information on the latest release Hardy 8.04, as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:

1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" after a fresh boot and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report.
3. Please run the command "sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report. (note "vv" not 'w")
4. Once the above information is attached, set the bug status to 'new' to signify that it is ready for triage or review.

For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies Thanks in advance!

I appear to have jumped the gun a bit, lets start with the basics, has the problem gone away with the latest release 8.04?

I've sold the pc with that board some time ago.

But I've seen an BIOS update on
http://www.abit.com.tw/<http://www.abit.com.tw/page/de/download/download_bios_detail.php?pFILE_TYPE=Bios&pMAIN_TYPE=Motherboard&pTITLE_ON_SCREEN=AN9+32X&pSOCKET_TYPE=Socket%20AM2>that
makes "Ubuntu Linux 32/64bit work correct". I think that one does the
trick. So it was their fault ;)

Thank you anyway

Michael
