I was looking into /var/log/messages and I discoverd this! :( I went on HP site and I found indeed a bios upgrade, but it reports: Fix/Enhancement: Updates the Computrace Option ROM to verison 889. So nothing of really useful!! :( It works quite well, some little problems: no bass, the front mic doesn't work... but they look as little thing to me! Do I need to be worried about this log ? Well, some X locks up with nouveau (normal and experimental, too), but this is another story, and another mail... ;) Jan 18 20:26:46 localhost kernel: [ 0.000000] Initializing CPU#0 Jan 18 20:26:46 localhost kernel: [ 0.000000] ------------[ cut here ]------------ Jan 18 20:26:46 localhost kernel: [ 0.000000] WARNING: at drivers/pci/dmar.c:633 warn_invalid_dmar+0x65/0x77() Jan 18 20:26:46 localhost kernel: [ 0.000000] Hardware name: Jan 18 20:26:46 localhost kernel: [ 0.000000] Your BIOS is broken; DMAR reported at address 0!
