Wait, does disabling acpi_thermal change the system resource settings such at ahc now works even with sysres not disabled? That is weird! That has to be some weird quirk in the BIOS. As far as debugging the acpi_thermal hang I think you would want to add some printfs to the acpi_thermal kthreads to narrow down where the hang occurs. -- John Baldwin
