Kubuntu Desktop CD doesn't boot for Intel Q965 chipsets

I hope this is the right package

Actually, it should be filed against linux-source-2.6.17... I've corrected that.

When booting from 6.06.1 LTS and the Edgy Release Candidate by removing the quiet from the boot the messages are the same:
ACPI: Bus Type PCI registered
ACPI: PCI BIOS Revision 3.00 Entity at 0Xeb048, last bus =32
PCI: Using MMCONFIG
ACPI: Subsystem revision 20050902
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI_0] 0x0000
ACPI: Assume Root bridge [\_SB_.PCI]

After that it hangs w/ no response.

By booting the 6.06.1 LTS cd and passing linux pci = nommconf I am able to boot in the Desktop CD.
However this command does not work in booting the release candidate.

This to me is a crtiical bug but don't know if the kernel developers would agree. I hope it helps w/ this additional errors.

Using the official Kubuntu release of Edgy I was still unable to boot. Tried to pass several commands and all failed. I can't tell if this bug is closed/or rejected or whatever it is, but it is still aproblem

I have an HP dx7300 with the Q965 chipset and I can confirm that this bug exists in the following ubuntu distributions:

6.10 x86 Desktop

6.10 AMD64 Alternate Install

6.06 x86 Desktop

The boot hangs and last message during boot is (similar to):

ACPI: Assume Root bridge [\_SB_.PCI]

Note that Ubuntu is not alone with this problem. All current gentoo livecd fail to boot at the same point.

I also built a bootable USB flash drive to test different kernels. I get the same symptoms with 2.6.20-rc1-mm1.

I have not tried every possible kernel command line option. Switching off APIC and ACPI did not help.

Adding pci=nommconf to the boot parameters allows 6.10 x86 Desktop to boot OK. (Have not tried other releases.)

Same problem on HP dc7700p Ultra-slim Desktop:
[ 0.061057] ACPI: bus type pci registered
[ 0.065096] PCI: Using MMCONFIG
[ 0.068636] Setting up standard PCI resources
[ 0.075516] ACPI: Interpreter enabled
[ 0.079207] ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing
[ 0.084556] ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)
[ 0.089389] ACPI: Assume root bridge [\_SB_.PCI0] bus is 0
--- System hangs at this point ---

Ubuntu version is Feisty Fawn Herd 4, PC (Intel x86) desktop CD

Boots after adding pci=nommconf

Changing this to incomplete... on the final release did you have any problems with the Kubunt uDesktop CD? Also are you able to boot a Gutsy Desktop CD, even an Alpha release?

I notice there have not been any updates for awhile on this bug. Can we get a status update on what things are happening

[Expired for linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
