MSI KT4 , thanks (very late) for the DSDT

[Maggio]

Hi ,

I've emailed to this list a bit of time ago about ACPI Issues with an 
MSI KT4 Ultra Motherboard .

Bruno Ducrot has helped me and have created a patch for the DSDT table , 
but at that time a was simply a NooB on linux, and I wasn't be able to 
override this table in the Kernel , now that I have more confidence I've 
retried this operation , this time successful :)

The DSDT table seems to work correctly , and I'm able to use the Suspend 
function for the S1 state (I haven't tried S3 , because on Gentoo 2.4.22 
kernel doesn't seem to be implemented yet) without enable the "Relaxed 
AML Checking" feature in the Kernel (Only by using that I could in the 
past get the Suspend to work) .

I want to thank Bruno Ducrot and all the ACPI team for your help :-) I'm 
also nagging MSI to make them solve this bug.

Another thing at the end .

The Suspend S1 works Ok, but I get anyway this message :

  ACPI-0398: *** Error: acpi_ev_gpe_dispatch: No handler or method for 
GPE[ 2], disabling event
keyboard: unrecognized scancode (70) - ignored
    ACPI-0398: *** Error: acpi_ev_gpe_dispatch: No handler or method for 
GPE[ 2], disabling event


Doesn't seem to be something to worry about, but I ask you anyway :)

Thanks

Marcello

Hi Maggio

I also have this motherboard, but haven't been able to get S3 to work 
correctly -- on the resume event, the computer reboots (resets) instead of 
resuming. I was (am still) using 2.6 kernels for my tests. 

If you have any luck can you please post your configuration etc, so that we 
can try and track down the issue. One thing I wasn't able to check was 
whether it was possibly the graphics card (which is a Radeon 9000 Pro).

You can see more information about my machine at

Thanks

John
