Could someone explain to me what this error message means and possibly how (if possible) to correct the problem. I use Dell Latitude x300 laptop and 2.4.26 kernel with the latest acpi patch (acpi-20040326-2.4.26). I have modified the dsdt table so that it compiles without any errors, but I still get the above error at boot. AC/Battery status does not work. Thermal does not work. It seems I can change the throttling of the CPU. Any suggestions are highly appreciated. Could I ask some one to reply to me even if they do not know how to solve the problem? You see, I have sent several emails to this list and got very small number of replies. Maybe my subscription is broken? Sometimes I get double postings of other people. Thanks a lot for you kind help Lazar __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!
