I couldn't found a DSDT for my IBM model, but in bugzilla there is some discussions about similar models. Looking throug dmsg I found the following: IBM machine detected. Enabling interrupts during APM calls. ACPI: RSDP (v002 IBM ) @ 0x000f6b40 ACPI: XSDT (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 LTP 0x00000000) @ 0x1ff6c263 ACPI: FADT (v003 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 IBM 0x00000001) @ 0x1ff6c300 ACPI: SSDT (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x1ff6c4b4 ACPI: ECDT (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 IBM 0x00000001) @ 0x1ff77e26 ACPI: TCPA (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 PTL 0x00000001) @ 0x1ff77e78 ACPI: BOOT (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 LTP 0x00000001) @ 0x1ff77fd8 ACPI: DSDT (v001 IBM TP-1R 0x00002110 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000 I'm wondering about the last number of the last line. Do you know if it indicates a broken DSDT? Some lines later I fount: ACPI: Found ECDT schedule_task(): keventd has not started ACPI-0178: *** Warning: The ACPI AML in your computer contains errors, please nag the manufacturer to correct it. ACPI-0181: *** Warning: Allowing relaxed access to fields; turn on CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG for details. ACPI: Interpreter enabled ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing I studied the information given by the ACPI project but can not decide, if the AML problem is related to the DSDT issue (which seems to be a critical one). Do you know about it? Thanks Peter
