Subject: Kernel 2.4.13 and ACPI not working (HP Omnibook 6000)

System is an HP Omnibook 6000 laptop, using the provided BIOS. Kernel
2.4.13 with ACPI enabled as a module.

On boot, with the debug enabled I get:

tbxface-0107 [01] Acpi_load_tables : ACPI Tables successfully loaded
Parsing
Methods:............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
300 Control Methods found and parsed (1046 nodes total)
ACPI Namespace successfully loaded at root c02d03c0
ACPI: Core Subsystem version [20010831]
evregion-0217 [22] Ev_address_space_dispa: no handler for region(c184cea8)
[PCIConfig]
exfldio-0222 [21] Ex_read_field_datum : Region PCIConfig(2) has no handler
evregion-0217 [22] Ev_address_space_dispa: no handler for region(c184cea8)
[PCIConfig]
exfldio-0597 [21] Ex_write_field_datum : **** Region type PCIConfig(2) does
not have a handler
ACPI: Subsystem enable failed

This is certainly an improvement over previous kernels, however I'd like to
get it working. Any thoughts or is this in the hands of those who
understand such things?

Thanks.

Oh, I'm not on the list, but I will see any replies on the archive. If you
want a faster response you'll need to CC me.

Hi,

I am seeing the exact same problem on my OB 6000, I think it's because
of a buggy bios. I upgraded to the latest version (1.80 [1 okt 2001])
but this doesn't help.

regards,

Roel

Hi

Something seems to be broken, I had it working in 2.4.10 and 2.4.9
With 2.4.13 on boot I get:

Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: Total of 2 processors activated (1798.96 BogoMIPS).
Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: ...changing IO-APIC physical APIC ID to 2 ... ok.
Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: ..TIMER: vector=0x31 pin1=2 pin2=0
Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: testing the IO APIC.......................
Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: .................................... done.

[snipped irrelevant stuff]

Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: ACPI: Core Subsystem version [20010831]
Oct 24 15:09:19 tachyon kernel: ACPI: Subsystem enabled

When I try to start acpid I get:

john:~/download/lexmark> sudo /sbin/acpid
Password:
acpid: ACPI is not present
john:~/download/lexmark> uname -a
Linux tachyon 2.4.13 #2 SMP Wed Oct 24 13:40:05 EDT 2001 i686 unknown
