Bug Description
The latest version of jaunty generates errors when trying to load the acpi ac adapter state on boot. The resultant behavior is that the system is unaware of the ac adapter state (nothing gets populated in /proc/acpi/
[ 1.679140] ACPI Error (psargs-0358): [\_PR_.CPU0._PSS] Namespace lookup fail
ure, AE_NOT_FOUND
[ 1.679167] ACPI Error (psparse-0524): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.A
C__.ADJP] (Node ffff88013f81a660), AE_NOT_FOUND
[ 1.679215] ACPI Error (psparse-0524): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.A
C__._PSR] (Node ffff88013f81a620), AE_NOT_FOUND
[ 1.679264] ACPI Exception (ac-0135): AE_NOT_FOUND, Error reading AC Adapter state [20080926]
[ 1.769339] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
This is most problematic on the kubuntu distribution, as it relies on this information to determine the ac adapter state for powerdevil. On gnome there is some sort of fall back and the correct state is determined (possibly by interpreting /proc/acpi/
[ 1.824127] ACPI: CPU1 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C2] C3[C3])
[ 1.824141] processor ACPI_CPU:01: registered as cooling_device1
[ 1.824143] ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports 8 throttling states)
[ 1.858123] ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ0] (57 C)
[ 12.273114] ACPI: Video Device [PEGP] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no)
[ 12.302021] ACPI: AC Adapter [AC] (on-line)
Is this the correct method to solve this problem? I've checked this solution against several other distributions that report the ac adapter state correctly (namely ArchLinux and openSUSE) and from what I can tell this is the solution that is used in each case.
