Info:

  Laptop: Acer Nitro 5 an515-42
  CPU: AMD Ryzen
  OS: Ubuntu 22.04

Here is what happened. I started my laptop normally as usual and did my college work. I watched some videos about Kodi. I installed Kodi using Flatpak. I opened the Kodi app, and pressed Esc to exit. It gave me options like Shutdown, Restart etc. I pressed Restart then... my laptop screen started flickering, and during boot it shows the following error:

ACPI Bios error (bug): AE_NOT_Found

Photo of error

I got scared because I read somewhere that Linux Bios can cause problems. I googled and found that this is a normal problem. But none of the keys work when this error comes. Enter key doesn't work inside GRUB menu.

I force shut down by holding power button and power on the system again Then under Advanced options I choose the first option that is some kernel option.(because after force shut down the arrow keys works)

Then it boots...

Now I've to do this every time. I don't understand how to fix this issue.

Please help!

This happens when your hardware is too new for the kernel.

Install a newer version of your Linux distro, so you don't have to choose the kernel every time.

OR

You could update your kernel (if you have any updates).

Do that by:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
