--- Comment #17 from Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovs...@suse.de> 2009-06-12 17:26:21 --- GPE storm is a condition then EC starts to send same event over and over again. If driver gets > 8 of such meaningless events it starts to disable event source during transaction. So, it looks like polling is what causes the 4 sec times. You may get better results if you change HZ=100 to HZ=1000. You may also try to use SBS instead of disabling it. It did not work for MacBook owners before, but times change... You need to add "acpi_osi=Darwin" command line option for BIOS to switch to it. I'm trying to find a way to prevent storm in EC, but have no success so far. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
