<SOLVED> Unable to boot after GPU driver update and config.
Hi. My update manager offered an update to my Nvidia GPU driver, which I did as I always do. I can't remember now, but I'm sure I rebooted afterwards and everything was fine. But I played a little with the Nvidia configuration program, I can't remember what I changed, but I didn't think I changed an...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <SOLVED>
Good news!
I decided to bite the bullet and do all updates for the last couple of months.
PROBLEM HAS DISAPPEARED
So something in one of those 50 odd updates must've been a bug fix for this ACPI problem.
H O O R A Y!

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Just thought I'd re-visit this unsolved problem to see if anyone thinks the problem might now have been solved? Would it be worth me spending a day backing up and attempting to re-install with all the latest updates? I've been running the laptop all this time without doing any updates to avoid the p...

Re: Erratic restore from suspend
That would be a difficult thing to do and prove because I have a wireless mouse that doesn't always appear until I've removed and re-inserted the USB dongle for it! Even on a normal boot from cold when the PC has been turned off all night, sometimes the mouse is frozen until I unplug & re-insert...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Does anyone know how I go about submitting a bug report about this problem?
Like WHO do I submit it to? (Link please?)
What information might they need?
Anything abut the Linux Mint bug reporting procedure would be really helpful...
Thanks.

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Thanks for your help and enthusiasm. It seems (to me) though that we're wanting different things here. You're obviously wanting lots of different OS's and versions running simultaneously. I just want to be able to boot my Laptop in LM 21.2 and be able to update it when updates are available without ...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
I'm afraid I don't understand @Reddog1 You said : "You can do a reinstall with NO UPDATES. Everything works, as you've proven. Then install VirtualBox in your new install, and use the Mint21.2 .iso in VB and install it as a virtual machine. " So I'm running Mint21.2 with no updates, and th...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Thanks again.... One of the problems here is that it takes a couple of hours each time I re-load the OS and do updates... I'm sick to the back teeth of sitting here doing that time after time after time now. I know I can clean install Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon from the ISO and as long as I don't do t...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Thanks @Maxwell-J it was worth a try, but no that didn't work.
It caused the system to drop down into some weird command prompt instead of booting :
BusyBox v1.30.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.30.1-7ubuntu3) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs)

Oh that's interesting @Maxwell-J Can you explain where and when you used "acpi=off" Would you care to explain what you mean when you said "I had to use "acpi=off" to get LM21.2 to install" I'd be intrigued! and willing to try, but I need the details, I'm not an expert i...

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Yeah, I did a clean install of 20.0 Then I updated most things apart from the AMD64 microcode update and an intel microcode update as I thought that's the processor on a sony vaio But it wasn't either of those as the problem still returned. So I clean installed again, and I'm just not doing any upda...

Re: Erratic restore from suspend
Yeah, there are a few drivers available, and I've noticed over the past few months they've been updating them all quite regularly, which is a pain as I'm on a very slow internet connection and they're all massive!
I have 535 (Using)
525, 470, 390 and xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Does anyone know which system updates might affect the ACPI errors I'm getting?
I could load a version of mint and update everything apart from those updates, but I'd need to know which ones they are.

Re: ACPI Errors Can not boot <Not Solved>
Hmmm Looks like I'm going to have to give up on Linux Mint on my laptop. That's a real shame.. It's been perfect for all these years... I went back to 20.0 and it initially worked fine, but then I did updates and bang the problem returns... So there must be a Linux Mint update that covers all versio...

Re: Erratic restore from suspend
No, that didn't work I'm afraid...
Still getting almost random times when it just doesn't recover from suspend.
I wonder if I should reverse the edit I did?
