I suspect that this is a BIOS bug, but I've been in contact with Gigabyte** Boo for lack of rereading and lack of edit button. :/ (In reply to comment #0) > /var/log/messages returns the following error: > > "[Firmware Bug]: powernow-k8: Your BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in > a > way that Linux understands. Please report this to the Linux ACPI maintainers > and complain to your BIOS vendor." > > I suspect that this is a firmware bug, right. And if you are running the latest Linux kernel release, you will see "No compatible ACPI _PSS objects found. Try again with latest BIOS." instead. this is not a Linux kernel bug. Reject it. |
