------- Comment #7 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-05-05 19:16 -------
As Yakui said in comment #5, the device  \_SB_.PCI0.LPC0.SIO_.COMA
really doesn't exist in the Vendor's ACPI BIOS -- so it is correct
that Linux complains when trying to Notify it.

Secondly...

       Method (_L08, 0, NotSerialized)
        {
            Notify (\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.SIO.COMA, 0x02)
        }
all the AML does on this GPE is to do that notify -- there is no
code to go and turn off any hardware interrupt source.
So it makes sense that if you get this, you'll get it again
as soon as we return from the interrupt handler.

Finally, the fact that some serial cables work and some do not
suggest that the cable is mis-wired to trigger a one-time
event that this serial port does not expect -- perhaps
flow control?

I suggest that you use the cable that works, and also
explore the BIOS for SETUP options related to the serial port.
I don't see a Linux bug here.
