Bug Description
Binary package hint: acpi
Hi at all!
I have the following message in dmesg:
ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [cf7d2748] 'on'
It's written several times in the log...it's right?
(My laptop is an Asus 2420)

Hey, I'm getting the same thing. It is writing:
"ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dbfdfdec] 'on'"
EVERY SIX SECONDS!!!!!
My log files are HUGE!!!
I did some searching and I found that it is coming from a file called 'thermal.c'. (try using google code search). I also found this being talked about in other distro forums but no one seems to have an answer.
Any help would be nice.
Thanks

The line that says "ACPI: Invalid PBLK length [5]" is our hint here.
The FreeBSD people seem to have fixed this in their ACPI implementation. From http://
"Invalid PBLK length workaround -- Accept a PBLK of length 5 (spec says 6). Only enable C2 for this though. Some people may be using 7 to indicate another C3 state but we do not support the extra state."

I am experiencing the same issue on a HP Pavilion a706n with kernel version 2.6.17-10. The error message prints every six seconds.
Searching /var/log/dmesg for "PBLK" turned up nothing for me, but I've attached said file.
Previously, I had filed a support request for this issue through a misguided conception of how Launchpad works. It can be found here: https:/
To summarize that support request, the message is printing even though my fans are running appropriately. Also, the problem seems to affect Fedora as well, judging by discussions I've read elsewhere, so the bug is likely upstream. Also, I tried unloaded the "thermal" module from my kernel temporarily, and that stopped the errors, but it probably isn't safe to leave that module unloaded. Finally, another user mentioned that he solved this problem on his system by flashing his BIOS, but that is not a viable option for many users.

If any one needs more information on this please let me know, because I have the same issue. I started seeing this after 2.6.17 kernel version. With 2.6.16 I have never seen this. And its there in all distro not just Ubuntu. I have the latest version of Feisty installed with kernel 2.6.20-12, but I still see them.

Just finished an install of Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, and I'm seeing this same issue. The kernel is logging the following every six seconds:
Apr 27 21:28:58 sunshine kernel: [ 1353.176717] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [d9dcff18] 'on'
This is with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic. No updates have been released for Hardy as of this writing. (First time I've tried Linux on this hardware, so I don't know if issue presents on this hardware with older software.)
Hardware is an HP Pavilion a635w desktop, which uses an Asus A7V8X-LA motherboard with a VIA KM400 chipset. I've got the latest BIOS from HP installed. Power supply, chassis, and CPU fan are all spinning.
If I rmmod the "thermal" module, log messages cease; if I insmod it again they start up again.
No match for "PBLK" in any of the /var/log/

Ben, thanks for the log files against Hardy. I'm reassigning to the kernel team for further investigation.
There was also a comment previously that a BIOS update might help resolve this issue. Just curious if anyone has tried this?
I'm also reassigning this to the "linux" source package since beginning with the Hardy development cycle kernel bug should be reported against the "linux" package instead of linux-source-

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://
Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

-------
Just did a clean install of Heron on my HP Pavilion a620n and i'm getting
Sep 4 17:01:42 HPclunker kernel: [ 18.772106] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dddd1f18] 'on'
every 6 sec in my kern.log, messages, and syslog sections of the system log viewer. Yes, all the fans are on and working just fine. I did a clean install because i was originally getting this in Heron so i upgraded to Ibex and was still getting the same ACPI fan message (diff address).
I went ahead and attached a txt file of the messages log from the first boot after the clean install. I've run the updates since then and still getting same message spam.
I'm going to upgrade to Ibex (again) and see if the problem persists.

Fan throttling via ACPI is DISABLED in the bios but ACPI in the kernel seems unaware of this. Also the temperatures read by ACPI are totally wrong and the attempts at starting the fans (which are always running) are totally unnecessary. Actual processor temps are in the low 30's C but the temps being read are 183C - constantly.

Its really stupid. I dont know where ACPI is getting these numbers for current and critical temp either. The BIOS is not reporting inaccurate temps in the display and the system runs cool with no instability that would accompany such drastically high temps. The processor would not be destroyed running at that temp. The bios is also configured to shutdown at some high double digit celsius value - cant recall offhand what I set it to.
I have removed and blacklisted thermal due to this bug. Not something I should have to do.
My processor also has one core being slowed for no apparent reason. Im not sure if this is related. Could this be a BIOS compatibility issue?

Problems with cpu throttling and thermal module are gone with the latest update to the kernel 2.6.27-9. The problems with Thermal continue if I load it but it seems to be left out - not sure if this is because I blacklisted it, although blacklisting it did nothing in subsequent reboots prior to the kernel update.
The cpu being locked into its lowest setting is fixed though. I wish I knew specifically what was causing these issues.If it wasnt for this update I would be stuck. I can't turn off acpi in the BIOS and retain frequency scaling in the OS.

I am just wondering if this has anything to do with this problem. Few days ago I installed sensors-applet on my system. In order for it to work properly (with all available sensors on the system), I also had to install the lm-sensors package.
I followed the instructions from https:/
It says there that after installing lm-sensors, you have to run:

The interesting part is that after sensors-detect added some modules to my /etc/modules the

But I am not certain that automatic speed adjustment works at my computer(set as an option in the BIOS), because it seams that my cooler tends to run faster on higher temperatures as if it regulates itself without external regulation.

I did a clean install of Jaunty on 5/5/2009
All seems to function except that I get the same "ACPI Unable message that others have reported
I had this problem with 8.10 and "fixed it" since all fans and temperature on the computer
appear ok by removing the thermal module. Jaunty does not seem to have a thermal module. Any help in killing the log file message

I'm seeing a different symptom in Karmic 2.6.30-5 #6 ; I see quote a lot of
[67420.586325] ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN0] to D0
[67485.450855] ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN0] to D0
[67508.277048] ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN0] to D0
[67522.125350] ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN0] to D0
in the logs - as you can see they are every few minutes.
I do wonder if this is related to https:/
where my fan doesn't turn on/off unless I do an acpi -t
I now have a 'watch acpi -t' running in a terminal in the background.

Not only has this bug persisted through every version of Ubuntu I've had, it's in my current Gentoo installation as well, so it's almost definitely an upstream problem for the kernel people.

The problem may well have existed for a long time but the solution that used to work, now doesn't. You used to be able to rmmod the thermal module and the problem would stop. Thermal is no longer a module so that doesn't work. I very much doubt the kernel people dictate what Ubuntu builds into the kernel or as a module.

My solution (until I attempt the solution in Greg's bug report) for now has been to move to syslog-ng and add a filter to dump this message:
filter f_acpierror { not match("
Then insert filter(
At my next reboot, I'll try out the solution that was suggested for Greg...

Both suggest the following boot option:

I am going to test it tonight for my own issue.

Hi Enrico,
If you add "fan" to the end of your /etc/modules file, does this log message disappear?
