If you have an Intel chipset, chances Hi Mike, First let me thank all the ACPI developers for their excellent work, ACPI is working just fine Thermal/CPU and battery wise in my Asus M8300 notebook. Reviewing your last commit on the timer problem, I was a bit suprised to see so little chipsets defined as "good" (just PCI ID 0x71138086, rev > 0x03) and I wondered if the Intel 440MX chipset (82443MX Power Management Controller) in my notebook wasn't also "good". I tried the timer_test at boot for about 15mins both with and without AC power, no warnings. Then I changed the cipset probe code to detect my device and it's been working without problems. I've attached my pciconf -lv output, there's also my verbose boot dmesg at http://devils.maquina.com/~gabriel/dmesg.acpi Another thing I've been wondering is why can't I suspend my machine to disk with ACPI or how do I do it. Usually with APM enabled I just press The Fn+F1 key combination to initiate suspend to disk, but this same key sequence doesn't do a thing when under ACPI. Is this supposed to work yet? I've also put my DSDT and ASL files at http://devils.maquina.com/~gabriel/m8300.dsdt and http://devils.maquina.com/~gabriel/m8300.asl Thanks again, Gabriel --mYCpIKhGyMATD0i+ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="pciconf.m8300" hostb0@pci0:0:0: class=0x060000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x71948086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82443MX I/O Controller?' class = bridge subclass = HOST-PCI pcm0@pci0:0:1: class=0x040100 card=0x10631043 chip=0x71958086 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82443MX?
