Description Peter Magnusson 2005-09-20 11:13:52 UTC 
I am using openSuse 10.0 RC1 on my Acer Aspire 3003 LMI. 
That is a AMD Sempron 3000+ system with Broadcom wlan chip.
Everything works ok besides that the batterystate isn't detected Ok and that the
/var/log/messages gets spammed with ACPI messages. When I boot with acpi=off
there is no errors but now it don't even detect when I run on mains. I have
tried Ubuntu 5.10 on the same machine and got similar errors. There it could be
disabled by using apci=noirq but that doesn't work with opensuse.

An example of my /var/log/messages is below.

Comment 1 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-09-20 11:25:43 UTC 
Please attach such long logs as attachment next time!
Comment 2 Juergen Weigert 2005-09-20 12:04:26 UTC 
Danny do you want to take that bug?   
It is more a mobile issue than a legal issue. I won't touch it.
Comment 3 Danny Al-Gaaf 2005-09-20 12:30:00 UTC 
I think this is a issue for Thomas, I reassign the bug.
Comment 4 Peter Magnusson 2005-09-21 08:11:06 UTC 
Update: This probably isn't a bug in openSuse. After finding some articles using
google about broken DSDT I could fix it. It think it is a hardware problem
related to Acer Aspire 3003 LMi that provides a buggy DSDT.
I solved the problem using info found on
http://www.whoopy.it/linux/ACPI_problem_linux_resolved.html but I only did the
DSDT stuff without smart battery described on that page. I will put up a
complete guide for Acer Aspire 3003LMi on http://crippledcanary.se/?page_id=9
Comment 5 Thomas Renninger 2005-09-21 09:17:28 UTC 
Could you send the diff output of the DSDT and the origanl one that fixex your
problem, please?
Maybe this could be workarounded in the kernel.

Comment 8 Thomas Renninger 2005-09-21 13:11:25 UTC 
Ok, I know this one.
I am currently thinking about a solution to workaround this problem, so that
patching the DSDT is not necessary anymore.
It seems as if the windows compiler can handle undefined Z00X operands.
Could you try a patch/kernel if I come up with a solution?
Comment 9 Peter Magnusson 2005-09-21 15:18:27 UTC 
I would be glad to help out and test a possible solution. Perhaps this fix could
be done before the 10.0 release?

Workaround for undeclared Z00X objects

If a Z00X object is found that has not been declared in whole ACPI namespace
one is created and added in the local namespace.
Works fine for me and as it is additionally checked for Z00X it should be
considered as rather safe.

I also created a bug and submitted the patch at:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5322
Waiting for comment/inclusion, then we should add this to 10.0 branch.
Comment 11 Thomas Renninger 2005-10-06 08:32:08 UTC 
I asked Robert Moore for this change.
He likes to add a more complex change that generally allows the use of
undeclared objects in Package declarations as the "other" ACPI
compiler/interpreter does. This is probably nothing for 10.0 and as far as I
know the ACPI people this will take a while until a fix gets mainline.

However, I only know of undeclared Z00x objects, but of those I have several
reports.
Olaf, this change should be rather safe as it only comes in when a Z00x object
is not found/undeclared. Could this be added to 10.0?

Patch didn't apply cleanly; here's what I added.
Comment 13 Olaf Kirch 2005-10-06 11:52:53 UTC 
Patch added to 10.0, but not yet to 10.1. Please let me know if you want 
the same patch for HEAD - if not, close as resolved/fixed
Comment 14 Thomas Renninger 2005-10-16 14:01:45 UTC 
Peter could you check whether it works for you with the newest YOU update kernel, please.
