Please build a previous kernel that doesn't show this message (say 2.6.17) with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y and report if you see the same message. Note that the patch that enabled these messages had been in mm before for several months and just dropped out for a bit before -mm4, so you might see this in earlier -mm's too. 2. Some other regression Lets hope not. In any case, it would be good to get to the root cause. Please open a bugzilla here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI and attach the output from acpidump found in the latest pmtools here: http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/ After the above, you might also check for an updated BIOS. thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
