Problem Description:
When I resume, I get:
PM: Finishing wakeup.
 acpi: resuming
ACPI: read EC, IB not empty
ACPI: read EC, OB not full
ACPI Exception (evregion-0412): AE_TIME, Returned by Handler for
[EmbeddedControl] [20060310]
ACPI Exception (dswexec-0459): AE_TIME, While resolving operands for [Store]
[20060310]
ACPI Error (psparse-0522): Method parse/execution failed [\_TZ_.THRM._TMP] (Node
c189ec44), AE_TIME
agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: resuming

Steps to reproduce:
Suspend and then resume
Comment 1 Miles Lane 2006-06-05 06:48:15 UTC
Yu, Luming <luming.yu@intel.com> asked me to try boot option: ec_intr=0.
Here are the results:

PM: Finishing wakeup.
 acpi: resuming
ACPI Exception (evregion-0412): AE_TIME, Returned by Handler for
[EmbeddedControl] [20060310]
ACPI Exception (dswexec-0459): AE_TIME, While resolving operands for [Store]
[20060310]
ACPI Error (psparse-0522): Method parse/execution failed [\_TZ_.THRM._TMP] (Node
c189ec44), AE_TIME
agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: resuming

So, booting with this option causes the "ACPI: read EC, IB not empty" and "ACPI:
read EC, OB not full" to stop showing up.
Comment 2 Luming Yu 2006-06-07 07:48:37 UTC
Hmm, I see AE_TIME, Returned by Handler for [EmbeddedControl] in both cases: 
ec_intr=0, ec_intr=1. It means ec hardware doesn't respond to the ec 
read/write/query command.

I recall this is a known and not resovled issue. What is the laptop brand and 
model? What is the kernel version? Maybe it is time to fix it. I don't want to 
lose it again.
Comment 3 Miles Lane 2006-06-08 08:35:54 UTC
My laptop is an HP Pavillion dv1240us.  I have reproduced the problem with
2.6.17-rc6-mm1.  My distro is Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.
Comment 4 Luming Yu 2006-06-12 00:55:58 UTC
1st step:
1. remove thermal & processor module in kernel. Re-test.
Comment 5 Adrian Bunk 2006-09-06 09:17:02 UTC
Please reopen this bug:
- it is still present in kernel 2.6.18-rc6 and
- you can provide the requested information.
