I get this from dmesg running FC5 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5smp. The machine seems to be stable (was crashing very frequently before this kernel in FC). Also yes I know to boot with noapci as a kernel parameter to most likely get rid of this error. I am still curious as to what it means. ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0681): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is not present [20060707] ACPI: Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x2 ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0681): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is not present [20060707] ACPI: Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x3

Also hyperthreading is disabled in the bios

as the machine refuses to boot if it is enabled with this kernel and all previous FC5 kernels panic on this machine.

Can you capture that panic ? I wonder if the upstream acpi developers are even aware of this at all. Can you remember the last version that worked ? Dave -- http://www.codemonkey.org.uk
