I installed Fedora on my notebook ASUS. When I type on terminal dmesg apper this:
ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [db816540] 'on'
I try to search a solution for this but I don't find it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use Ubuntu live and wanted to run the session with ACPI turned off
So at boot-time using F6 I selected ACPI=off
However, pstree -p shows, on line 2,: acpid(1817)
So how do i really turn ACPI off?
(Opensuse 11.4, nvidia, core2) PROBLEM: cpu goes into C3 powersaving state even on full load (even when disabled from bios) (acpi=off prevents this). opensuse 11.4 kernel ignores boot option processor.max_cstate=2 (option has no effect). cpufreq util should be able to change governor policy to performance, however acpi-cpufreq driver doesn't load: modprobe acpi-cpufreq -> FATAL: error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib.../acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device

I've done this before with other machines (no raid sets) but with these machines I'm running into errors code...
I face a problem with my server after i rebooted it i got a message on start up tell me that " Unable to access resume device (label=swap-sdb3) " and the system doesn't startup
the error message exactly is

Yesterday I thought I had solved my "Blank screen boot"-issue when I successfully got to the terminal login screen without the screen going black by booting with
Code:
Linux acpi=off
I spoke too soon. I found out shortly after that when trying to "startx" with acpi off gave me these errors:
Code:
WARNING: Error inserting i2c_algo_bit ("filepath"): No such device
WARNING: Error inserting intel_agp ("filepath"): No such device
[Code]....
Then I read somewhere that booting with "i915.modeset=0" might work. So I removed acpi=off from lilo and added this, and sure enough, I got to terminal login, but I get the same errors with "startx".
I must make it clear that I can successfully perform startx when I boot without "acpi=off" or "i915.modeset=0", I am unable to see the screen but I can hear the KDE fanfare, etc.
I have tried both DVD and CD (both are MD5-checked) of both Lenny 5.0.8 and Squeeze RC on my HP DV7-3074CA. (a.k.a 3085DX)When I choose a graphic install, it just hangs after loading the initial files.When I choose the normal install, It gives the following error:
[1.383207] ACPI: EC: Input buffer is not empty, aborting transaction.
Is there a boot command I can input to override this? I tried removing the battery slot, but the only difference is that that message does not appear, but the setup hangs anyway.

This is the OS version of CentOS I am running: Linux pbx.local 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jul 1 19:07:06 EDT 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I am wondering if this is a driver issue, ACPI sending computer or ports to sleep, or if it's something else? Any pointers would be appreciated. Following is some portions of dmesg output:

I ahve also today upgraded my BIOS to 1303 version. Still no difference.
I'm having a bit of a problem with a CentOS install I'm working on.This computer is an Asus M2A-VM mobo with the latest bios and a fully patched CentOS 5.3 system.The system randomly freezes and I've been able to narrow it down to what i think is ACPI issues with the chipset since the system is rock stable if I use the ACPI=off option in grub. However, when I do, I get messages about OHCI and EGCI controllers not having the correct PCI IRQ or somesuch and my USB don't work. Since this system has a usb keyboard, mice and printer, that's a bit of an issue!The system boots fine but will freeze after a random amount of time, sometimes even during startup (after the X Window system has been opened).
I'm at the end of my rope here as I'm admittedly pretty new to Linux (about 2 months experience although I've succesfully set up 5 systems and a zimbra server in that time - slowly learning when I'm trying to do something) and I've been scouring the net to try and find a solution to no avail.I know this particular chipset seems to be very trouble prone if I look around but the only thing I could find about issues like mine was related to ACPI with the chipset but that supposedly solved in earlier kernel revisions (and I have the latest kernel).troubleshoot the defective part of ACPI on my chipset would be appreciated so I can turn off the offending ACPI "feature".
PS : I also get an error message when booting : ACPI expecting a [REFERENCE] package element, found type F7B953PC

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Centos 5.4 on my Pentium E5300 new comp, but I need IPX support in my work. It's simple - ipxutils and ncpfs from Fedora Core and new kernel with ipx support. I copied kernel config from /boot folder and activate ipx, ntfs support, and choose processor core 2 duo. New kernel (2.6.26) works OK, but I got one problem - when start it still shows message: "kernel: HUB 1.0:1.0 unable to enumerate USB device on port 1 (or 2, 3)" and stops after logging (text mode)
I got 2 USB devices connected - printer HP D5160 PhotoSmart and Scanner A3 USB Mustek, and I know scanner cause that messages but I don't understand why. Kernel config is the same like that from distro kernel (almost - ipx, ntfs and proc), but distro kernel doesn't do that. So I got 2 questions:
1. Why
2. What to do to stop that (disconnecting devices on boot time is not a solution)
I have a Dell Vostro 1520 laptop and dual boot Windows 7 and Debian 7.8 64-bit. Windows 7 does use a lot of resources and the cooling fan kicks in almost all the time and it's a bit noisy. So I installed Debian which makes a big difference as it uses less resources so the fan is on less often.I just installed LXDE desktop to try to reduce this even further and I must say it is much better but fan still comes on even when laptop is quite cool so not sure why fan is kicking in so early.
Any best software to control when the fan comes on. If there are any good tools that are easy to install for someone who is quite new to linux? URL...
The cooling fan on my Toshiba Satellite m500 doesn't work after installation of ubuntu 9.10. I've looked on the internet but i can't seem to find anything.

There is a lot of threads connected to this topic, but none has solved my problem yet. The problem occurs when I hibernate Windows and then load ubuntu - I get unable to turn wifi on. As rfkill says - it is hard blocked. It wouldn't be a problem if i had a hard switch for wifi. but I only have fn+F3 for that, which somehow fails to work in my situation.

I'm running Karmic on an Acer Aspire AO751h and very aware of the issues regarding the GMA500 ans psb drivers, and after reading all the forums I've finally accomplished to make it work just fine. Last week it performed an update via the update manager and since then I haven't been able to restore/run any of the compiz settings and found out that the problem is that it doesn't let me turn on my visual effects under the appearance settings. When I attempt to set them as normal or extra, it starts "searching for available drivers" then the screen blinks several times, goes black, hides every window and just shows me my desktop background and then come back again and displays "Desktop effects could not be enabled". As I mentioned before, Compiz was running fine and I had no issues with the visual effects prior to the last update perfomed a week ago. Can you help me please?? If you need further information I'll be more than glad to provide them tou you, this is driving me nuts!

I have had a Supermicro X7DCL-3 motherboard based machine, running CentOS 5.2 x86_64, recently upgraded to 5.3.Strangely enough, although I must have installed the 5.2 using DVD disk, the running system does not show the DVD drive. The machine was not used very much so I noticed that only today, after the update. There is no trace of it in 'dmesg', thera are no /dev/cd* and/or /dev/dvd* devices. The IDE controller is IT8213 (as shown by 'lspci'). In 5.2 kernel (2.6.18-92.el5-x86_64) lspci says "unknown device". I have checked the /usr/src/kernels/*/.config files and both kernels (5.2 and 2.6.18-128.el5-x86_64 of 5.3) seam to have the support for that controller added into the kernel:CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IT821X=yAny idea why it is not working? The Supermicro has apparently noticed this also as their OS compatibility chart lists the IDE interface for that motherboard as supported up to RHEL 5.1 but not for 5.2.
