Hello,
I swapped a hard drive from a failing HP DV9000 to a Toshiba satellite pro A210. Before doing so, I removed the nvidia drivers and switched to nouveau. The unit boots up and works fine; however, I get the following error messages on boot:
[0.037000] Mp-bios bug:8254 timer not connected to io-apic [1.526038] ata1: softreset failed (device not ready
When I attempt to either shut down or reboot, it switches from the gui to a black screen with either "reboot" or "shutdown" on the top left hand corner and simply hangs there. The power button has to be held down to shut off the notebook. I'm not sure how to solve this issue. Some googling results in feedback stating it is an acpi problem solved by adding acpi --force to the boot parameters?
Any clues would be appreciated...
Thanks!
