Bug Description

In /var/log/messages I get the following error at startup.

I'm not sure for how long I get this error, but I think it's since using hardy 64-bit on my new system (Intel E8400, ...)

PS: it's probably this bug: http://<email address hidden>/msg15350.html

Hi,

I can confirm this bug on my LG E500 laptop. I use a Intel core 2 duo T8100 @2.1GHz. ACPI is not working correctly. To be able to boot I needed to fix an error in the DSDT table and use the boot option acpi_no_auto_ssdt.

When I boot I still get this error messages in the kernel ring buffer with dmesg:

The complete power management and the thermal management are not working correctly. I can confirm this behaviour for both, i386 and am64 distributions.
