Excerpt rom ACPI 4.0a: --------------------------------------------------- Each Compatible Device ID must be either: o A valid HID value (a 32-bit compressed EISA type ID or a string such as "ACPI0004"). o A string that uses a bus-specific nomenclature. For example, _CID can be used to specify the PCI ID. --------------------------------------------------- Since it is not a valid HID value, you can only say it may be a bus-specific nomenclature at best. However, it looks like an ISA device to me and probably it is just a bogus ID. In fact, I googled a bit and it only exists on some Intel Mac models, it seems. You can just remove the entire _CID unless it is absolutely necessary, which is very unlikely. :-) Jung-uk Kim > Compile error: > kBuild: iasl DevicesR3 - > /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-3.2.10_OSE/src/ >VBox/Devices/PC/vbox.dsl > /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-3.2.10_OSE/src/ >VBox/Devices/PC/vbox.dsl 736: Name (_CID, > "smc-napa") > Error 4001 - > String must be entirely > alphanumeric ^ (smc-napa) > > ASL Input: > /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-3.2.10_OSE/src/ >VBox/Devices/PC/vbox.dsl - 1305 lines, 46193 bytes, 288 keywords > Compilation complete. 1 Errors, 0 Warnings, 0 Remarks, 404 > Optimizations > > > I have found the commit that introduces this additional checks: > http://git.moblin.org/cgit.cgi/acpica/commit/?id=b66fd716e0b9b5389e >544c58df189c817f316c3b > > and here is the dsl file from virtualbox: > http://www.virtualbox.org/browser/trunk/src/VBox/Devices/PC/vbox.ds >l#L781 > > > Thanks!
