In that case, your only option is to install the iasl port, use its acpidump to extract the ASL, fix the bugs, compile it with iasl back to AML, and use loader(8) to load your fixed DSDT table on boot. You can _try_ appealing to MSI, but I suspect this is what comes out of the AMIBIOS ACPI generator tool and they have no idea what the problem is. > > > On 3 Jan, Doug White wrote: > > On Fri, 2 Jan 2004 supraexpress@globaleyes.net wrote: > > > >> While nothing appears to be affected, I am getting the ACPI error > >> messages below as I have in 5.2-RC1, and 5.1. > > > > These are bugs in the DSDT on your system.
