Hello,

I've some problems with my new ASUS laptop with the latest BIOS 0205A from
http://fsai.fh-trier.de/~gielj/M6800N/
As from the title, when I insert the ACPI 'processor' module, I got this error:
=====
acpi_processor-2210 [188] acpi_processor_get_inf: Invalid PBLK length [7]
ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports C1)
=====

while all the entry in /proc/acpi/processor/CPU1/ seem there:
=====
gismo:/proc/acpi/processor/CPU1# cat info
processor id: 2
acpi id: 1927985
bus mastering control: no
power management: no
throttling control: no
limit interface: no

gismo:/proc/acpi/processor/CPU1# cat limit
<not supported>

gismo:/proc/acpi/processor/CPU1# cat power
active state: C47514253
default state: C26214683
bus master activity: 00010000

C1: promotion[--] demotion[C23360] latency[000]
usage[134972534]

C3: <not supported>

gismo:/proc/acpi/processor/CPU1# cat throttling
Could not determine current throttling state.
=====

I already hacked my DSDT (attached in .dsl format), but the last tests I made on
2.6.3 + ACPI 20040220 and 'ACPI DSDT in initrd' gave the same error (attached
'dmesg' output).

Possible solutions?

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
