Hi,

Last week i went to buy a new PC. I decided to get an acer aspire ASE700
which comes witch a Quad Intel 6600 Processor, 2 GB RAM and 500GB
Harddrive. It seemed to be a pretty good deal for the price they had
offered it. Anyways, after playing around with Windows Vista, I would
have liked to really use my system and install Suse 10.2 on it. Okay, i
downloaded the single CD to install from the net. booted from it - black
screen after LILO. Okay I thought, it maybe the CD. I downloaded all the
ISOs, burned em and now: The bootmanager comes up, when I
select "installation" and "Text Mode" it loads the kernel and gets stuck
on "ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)" I have no idea what this
means but above this it says: "your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR
settings ACPI: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs.
ACPI: corrected configuration.
ACPI: Interpreter enabled
ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)"
Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work anymore Okay, Power-off, Power-on
This time I selected "Installation--ACPI Disabled" (and text mode)
"loading kernel" seems to be fine but it gets stuck on a screen saying:
"PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:02.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:03.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1a.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1c.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 0000:00:1c.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:01.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:02.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:03.0
PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1a.0
NET: Registered protocol family 2
Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work anymore Okay, Power-off, Power-on
This time I selected "Installation--Local APIC Disabled" (and text
mode) "loading kernel" seems to be finebut it gets stuck again, this time
the screen says:
"ACPI Interpreter enabled
ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)"
So i really don't know further. Does anyone know any of above messages?
May anyone help me to get it installed? It would so much be appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi,
The MTRR message points to a something in the bios of your PC. MTRR stands
for 'memory type range registers'. The message is in itself not a problem;
it's just warning and linux will use the settings for all processors which
is correct, so don't worry about it.
Your problem has to do with some IRQ setting. Try to do a few things in
the bios first and if not succesful afterwards give parameteroptions to
grub during the boot to fix this, see bootprompt-howto document. Try to
find out which device has got which irq etc.

You don't know by any chance what settings i gotta play with eh?
Thwe IRqs are like follows:
IRQ - Type
0 event timer
3 COM2
4 COM1
6 floppy
8 Hi prec. event timer

16 Intel P965/G965 PCI Express Root Port - 29A1
16
....
23 Diverse PCI devices like USB Host Controller or SATA RAID and LAN, IEEE
1394 and audio.
These data are from the Windows Device Manager and it doesn't show anything
on IRQ5...that's weird, no?
Can anyone help?
Any tips or hints would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
