Hallo Timothy, indeed I am using normal/fallback mechanism and yes there was no file with ACPI tables in the ROM. adding the missing table with cbfstool seems to work perfectly. ROM looks like this now:
coreboot.rom: 2048 kB, bootblocksize 2528, romsize 2097152, offset 0x0 alignment: 64 bytes, architecture: x86 Name Offset Type Size cmos_layout.bin 0x0 cmos_layout 1828 cmos.default 0x780 cmos_default 256 fallback/romstage 0x8c0 stage 43536 fallback/ramstage 0xb340 stage 83111 fallback/payload 0x1f840 payload 619718 normal/romstage 0xb6d40 stage 35096 normal/ramstage 0xbf680 stage 60911 normal/payload 0xce4c0 payload 619699 config 0x1659c0 raw 3963 revision 0x166980 raw 603 normal/dsdt.aml 0x166c40 raw 10163 (empty) 0x169440 null 614744 thank you for the quick help! best regards Mono On Sun, Jun 07, 2015 at 03:21:17PM -0500, Timothy Pearson wrote: > On 06/07/2015 03:04 PM, Mono wrote: > >Ahoi Vladimir (and all), > > > >nice to see you again! > > > >my macbook21 lately has two issues: xserver cannot start and poweroff does > >not poweroff but stops after halt. > >startx throws the following error: > >modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'i915': No such device > >intel: waited 2020 ms for i915.ko driver to load > > > >bisect says: > ># good: [1cac2c9713a864fe90f40040cd1ede130983544c] Hide PLATFORM_USES_FSP1_1. > >git bisect good 1cac2c9713a864fe90f40040cd1ede130983544c > ># bad: [a4cf83df7a3ef3401e12ca3732cbe07294684d02] cbfs: Fix mismerge. > >git bisect bad a4cf83df7a3ef3401e12ca3732cbe07294684d02 > ># only skipped commits left to test > ># possible first bad commit: [a4cf83df7a3ef3401e12ca3732cbe07294684d02] > >cbfs: Fix mismerge. > ># possible first bad commit: [1aeea7fbdf252c95e1e3cdf45339a1430125f85d] tpm: > >Add dummy _DSM to make Bitlocker happy. > ># possible first bad commit: [36f8d27ea9f741e184b76b5f42d7f777f207edc0] Make > >DSDT a file in CBFS rather than embedding it into ramstage. > > > >36f8d27 and 1aeea7f had been skipped because of a build error. > >however, cherry picking a4cf83d on top of 36f8d27 is bad already.
