Hi:
Since Andrew Morton picked up latest acpi bk updates, nforce motherboards have problems, mainly with ethernet adapters. Reporters say that with acpi=off, the problm gets fixed, so we think the problem could be acpi. Some more useful info:

When I try to boot with latest mm series (such as actual rc3-mm1 or
rc2-mm2), my nforce ethernet device doesn't works. It worked in the past
with the forcedeth reverse engineered driver but now it keeps for 30 or
more seconds halted (at boot) and then the network device dosn't run.
Here is the dmesg of rc3-mm1. Do you want for me to test something? Thanks!
P.S.: The ACPI related messages are larger that in rc3.
My e100 on an nforce2 won't work in rc3-mm1.
The "acpi=off" boot parameter makes it go.
And for the record, I can boot with that kernel and save one dmesg for you if you want. Only send me a request and I'll send it to you.
P.S.: Sent any messages you want directly to me as i'm not subscribed to acpi-devel.
Thanks,
Luis Miguel García
Which part of nforce support are you talking about luis?

- Merged some page reclaim fixes from Nick and Nikita. These yield some
performance improvements in low memory and heavy paging situations.
Andrew, do you know if this acpi pull down has nforce support fixed?
It doesn't appear that way.

Or perhaps it's even unnotified to the acpi team?
I do not know. Sending them a bugzilla ID would help, if such a thing exists.
