There is an issue with the HP laptop DSDT and our ACPI code. They initialize some child devices before initializing their parents, causing an infinite loop. The acpi-jp list doesn't seem interested in changing the way we do initialization, and theres no docs on the part it's initializing to rewrite the DSDT. Hmm, could you clarify. What child devices is it initializing first? -- John Baldwin [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ Power Users Use the Power to Serve! - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

See the mailing list archives about how to disable ACPI on load. Certain Sony VAIO models have the same problem. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message

Hi Tomas, Last time I installed -current on a 6100, having ACPI enabled would reboot the machine. Try disabling it from the boot loader, search the -STABLE archives for the ACPI causes immediate reboot thread. I don't know the current status (I couldn't get an acceptable subset of devices for my primary machine whilst travelling, so sold it on). At least one person with a 6100 persevered further with this, maybe someone else can help you with the current status or better advice? Cheers, AS msg42110/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I also reported the immediate reset when booting with ACPI enabled. I haven't been able to further narrow the problem down, and didn't get a reply from the ACPI folks as well. So I ran with ACPI disabled. I switched to 4.6R a while ago because I got tired of -current after a phase of instability. Note that this is not a complaint, it is just that a released version better fits my needs. I may go back to running -current when I have more spare time. -- Regards, Georg.

In short - its broke, just turn it off :) BTW windows has issues with sleep/hibernate on these machines anyway, so there are probably deeper issues at hand. -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
