Comment 34 for bug 8341

I tried booting a hoary live cd, but it had all kinds of video problems that
made it unusable. The second time I tried to boot, it locked up. It seemed like
a different problem than what I opened this bug for though. Once hoary is a
little closer to release, I'll try out the 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 kernels from hoary.
This is my work machine, so I can't risk downtime hunting down bugs. So far
booting with acpi=off noapic nolapic has worked great, this machine had a 90 day
update before I rebooted to try the livecd. I realize that isn't the ideal
solution, but it works.
