In looking at dmesg this morning, I noted the following section:

[  853.529553] ACPI Exception (thermal-0538): AE_ERROR, ACPI thermal trip point state changed
[  853.529558] Please send acpidump to linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org

So, in response to the second line quoted above, I'm sending you the following:

~$ acpidump
acpi_os_map_memory: cannot open /dev/mem

I'm not sure what that means, but I hope it helps. fyi, I was plugging in my usb printer, which wasn't working correctly, which is why I was in dmesg.  In case that matters.

Grace,

Kent Rasmussen

You need to run acpidump as root user.
