It's Matsonic 7132A (http://www.matsonic.com/ms7132a.htm ; http://206.135.80.155/manual/ms7132a.pdf). Pretty nice board. Latest bios for it is dated 09/13/00 and there is no upgrade. > Or you could add "acpi=force" to your command line, as suggested in the > dmesg output.
Tried this with strange results - kernel halted during boot, after displaying:
[... dmesg ...] PM: Adding info for ide:1.0 hda: max request size: 1024KiB hda: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=16383/255/63, UDMA(66) /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 p2 p3 p4 hdc: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 8192kB Cache, DMA Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
HALT. No sysrq, no shift+pgup, no response for power button.
Dmesg _without_ acpi=force:
hdc: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 8192kB Cache, DMA Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 input: AT Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.6 (Wed Aug 20 20:27:13 2003 UTC).

And so on.

I will try this next. ACPI was working flawlessly for me almost from the beginning.
