This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.35. Please don't
close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.

Comment 1 Rafael J. Wysocki 2010-08-29 22:27:32 UTC

This is a harmless notification, dropping from the regression list.

Comment 2 Len Brown 2010-09-14 02:31:09 UTC

Miles,
why was this marked as a regression, it used to work?

please share the complete dmesg for this system.

what do you see if you...

tail /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/ATKG

does that lock up the system?

Comment 3 Zhang Rui 2010-09-27 02:07:32 UTC

ping...

Comment 4 Zhang Rui 2010-09-30 05:14:46 UTC

please re-open the bug if the problem still exists in the latest kernel, and you can provide the info requested in comment #2.
