------- Comment #46 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-09-12 09:01 -------
Andreas Besse, Thanks for the dmesg. It seems that linux-2.6.23-rc5 can work
well.
The remaining two bugs in comment #45 are described in the following:
1. AE_NOT_FOUND .Linux will check whether the defined CPU in DSDT exits using
two methods.
    a. Using local APIC info. If CPU is enabled in the local APIC table, the
CPU exists.
    b. Using the method of _STA method. If the CPU can't be foundin local apic
table, the system will check whether the CPU is hot-added. If the method of STA
fails, the defined CPU doesn't exist and the system will print the info of
AE_NOT_FOUND.
2. Unknown exception code. If HPET table is defined, hpet will be initialized
and started(mainly in the function of time_init and late_hpet_init). In the
function of hpet_init the linux will check the hpet resources using the
following function. 
 acpi_walk_resources(device->handle, METHOD_NAME__CRS, hpet_resources, &data);
 Because the hpet has been initialized, the resource_callback function of
hpet_resources will print the info of "hpet is busy" and return
-EBUSY(0xFFFFFFFF0). ACPI will check the status of return-code before leaving
acpi_walk_resources. 
  Because the return-code(0xfffffff0) isn't defined in the acpi exception
table, the system prints the unknown exception code (0xfffffff0).
Of course the above error message can be ignored. It has no effect on the
system.
