I'll also try Rafael's suggestion re acpi_osi. OK, so, findings: F16 and F17 live images reboot quickly. F18 is the first that reboots slowly. That gives us a range of kernel-3.3.4-5.fc17.x86_64.rpm (the F17 release kernel - last known good) to kernel-3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64.rpm (the F18 release kernel - first known bad). I'll try and see if I can find a way to narrow the range any. Well, one report on the vaio-z mailing list - https://lists.launchpad.net/sony-vaio-z-series/msg02868.html - indicates the problem existed in Ubuntu kernel 3.5.0-17-generic , so that'd be a range of 3.3.4 to 3.5.0 for the breakage. acpi_osi="!Windows 2012" as a kernel parameter on a 3.12-rc6 kernel does not result in a fast reboot, it's no help. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
