Re: Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_BAD_PARAMETER [Scan]

[Franck Routier <franck.routier-i39dT1/MG/sAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Are you by any chance using acpi-dsdt-initrd-patch-v0.4-2.6.1.diff patch 
to load you modified dsdt table ?

I had the same behaviour on my samsung x10 laptop, until I switched to 
the latest version of the patch for kernel 2.6.7. This corrected the 
problem. acpi-dsdt-initrd patches for 2.6.4 and 2.6.5 seem to be broken, 
at least under certain circonstances...

Hope this helps...

Franck
