Interesting. Not the same model, but both are relatively new. It sounds as if they switched to the EC chip that Acer used for the Aspire One :-). There's a very similar bug for the Acer netbook: <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12949> There are several patches. Alexey's patch was confirmed to help on the Acer netbook. I suggest you try the latest patch from Alexey, which is attached at comment 20: <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12949#c20> > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=+Method+parse%2Fexecution+failed > > brings a list where it is possible to find something of that sort > in different settings too. I think that's a very general failure message, that ACPI failed to execute some method. I don't think there are any other EC (Embedded Controller) failures on that list.
