Decrement method

Decrement method

[Irene Zubarev]

Hello, I am using Nov. 1st ACPI driver.  I found something strange, if ASL
has the following:

      Store( Arg0, Local0 )
      Decrement( Local0 )

The result is that _both_ Local0 and Arg0 get decremented.  Has anyone seen
this before?  Is this expected behaviour?  I am very new to ACPI, I'd
appreciate any help on how to fix this.

Thanks,

Irene Zubarev

ACPI and Shutdown on VAIO FXA-49

[Russ Neff]

Hello,
 I am running the 9.18.2002 patch on a stock 2.4.19 kernel on a Sony VAIO
FXA-49 (Mandrake 9.0). I do seem to have a fan control and temperature
regulation as well as battery and ac adapter status  (a lot more than I had
before). My problem is that as soon as I patch the kernel I cannot
completely power off (screen goes black but power is still on) and a reboot
will cause my system to hang at the bios flash screen with the HDD LED on
solid. Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Russ

Hi Russ,

the latest 11.11.2002 patch works very fine with my VAIO FXA-49. No
problems with shutdown. I guess your machine should be quite similar, so
it is probably a good idea to try the latest patch.
I don't know whether you are using the mdk kernel, if so, go ahead and get
the standard kernel.

cheers

Stefan

Thanks,
I did try the 200211 patch and had the same results. i wll try the 2.4.18
kernel and patch as suggested by Markus and see what it yields.

Thanks Again,
Russ

Could you please send a dmesg?  Did you also compile with apm stuff (the
two are not compatible and you have to make a choice) ?

IIRC this problem only occurs if you activate APIC in your kernel.

That was it exactly. I now have shutdown and most of ACPI working. Thanks to
everyone for the help.

Thanks,
Russ
