Re-opening (I think). Even if this is not a real "error" (ie, if not having a DSDT is a normal situation), this is still a user-interface bug: it should not be reported as a boot-time error. The message should be changed to something more descriptive, like "file /DSDT.aml not found, using defaults" or whatever is appropriate.
I couldn't find any recent docs on this, what is it supposed to do, anyway? I'm always having issues with ACPI and I'm always on the look for hacks. Is there anything I can do (ie, compile a file) and perhaps include it in a package to help support my laptop type better (Dell Latitude D620). I'm attaching 2.6.22 too, as I still get this message on Gutsy with the newest kernel. ** Also affects: linux-source-2.6.22 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- ACPI: Looking for DSDT ... not found!
