Re: acpi patch for dell laptop?
Great. Do you also have working battery status now? Does anyone have a 5000e? The fix for the 5000 doesn't fix my suspend/resume problems on my 5000e. However, the battery status works fine using standard /dev/apm from the acpi module.

Re: acpi patch for dell laptop?
Hi, doesn't work for several models.. Including Inspiron 7500. WHo knows enough about this to be able to look at debug info I have? John Baldwin has posted a patch which worked for me on my Thinkpad 600X with the same ACPI-0340 error. I tried this patch, and while it does get rid of that particular error message, I have a feeling it's (ACPI/the patch/or something) causing my system to overheat, making it power down after a while. Funny thing is that this only seems to happen while I'm in a dockingstation (ThinkPad T21 + Dock). And with ACPI disabled, the machine refuses totally to boot, it hangs at 'Mounting root from ...'. If I undock the machine, I can boot with and without ACPI, with the latter option being the only usable (stable) mode. /Eirik My system gives lots of: acpi_cpu: throttling enabled, 8 steps (100% to 12.5%), currently 100.0% ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR ACPI-1287: *** Error: Method execution failed [\\_SB_.BAT1._STA] (Node 0xc167ed60), AE_ERROR ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER ad0: 24207MB IBM-DARA-225000 [49184/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER acd0: DVD-ROM TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-C2402 at ata1-master UDMA33 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s4a ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER ACPI-0340: *** Error: Could not release ACPI Global Lock, AE_BAD_PARAMETER [...] On Sun, 22 Jun 2003, Kenneth D.

Re: acpi patch for dell laptop?
Speaking about ACPI, has anyone figured out how to close the lid without suspending? I remember before, when the lid was closed, it would suspend even with sysctl set to not suspend and the screen stays on and when you resume, you can type but the screen freezes and doesn't update. This is on a Inspiron 8200. I can't test the new patch for a few days as my original HD running March 8, 2003 -CURRENT died on April 7, 2003 and it seems the drive has problems reading/writing as it timeouts but I can get /etc only so I'm going to rebuild the system.

Crap. I just saw that I had no quotes around the '1'. Will it still get that setting, or do I have to change it and try again?

Just out of curiosity, have you tried setting hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range=1 in your /boot/device.hints file? I've found that this option fixes many unbootable laptops - especially thinkpads. Hmm.. Yes, I think I have. Atleast it's in my device.hints file now- however I don't know if I tried docking it and booting without ACPI after I put that line in.. Perhaps I should try again, but my gut feeling tells me it's not gonna make any difference. Atleast as long as its undocked it had no effect on any of the other problems I'm experiencing. Try again and let me know. /Eirik -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.

I remember before, when the lid was closed, it would suspend even with sysctl set to not suspend and the screen stays on and when you resume, you can type but the screen freezes and doesn't update. Setting hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=NONE in /etc/sysctl.conf keeps my Toshiba from suspending on lid close. Is that the sysctl you are referring to as not working? -- Scott LambertKC5MLE Unix SysAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
