PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing
** PCI interrupts are no longer routed automatically.  If this
** causes a device to stop working, it is probably because the
** driver failed to call pci_enable_device().  As a temporary
** workaround, the "pci=routeirq" argument restores the old
** behavior.  If this argument makes the device work again,
** please email the output of "lspci" to bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
** so I can fix the driver.

Comment 6 Andrew Morton 2005-05-25 21:16:46 UTC
Can we please have an update on this?  Does 2.6.12-rc5 work OK?
2.6.12-rc5-mm1?
Comment 7 Milo Casagrande 2005-05-31 01:19:43 UTC
I can get to compile 2.6.12-rc5, it gives me error on i8042.
Even 2.6.12-rc5-mm1 gives me the same error.
Comment 8 Adrian Bunk 2005-07-28 04:46:07 UTC
Is this problem still present in 2.6.13-rc3-mm3?
Comment 9 Milo Casagrande 2005-07-31 08:06:41 UTC
I can't compile 2.6.13-rc3-mm3, it gives me some error on 'netlink', on 2.6.12.3
without acpi patch it still doesn't work. i will try with acpi patch asap and
also with 2.6.13-rc4-mm1
Comment 10 Milo Casagrande 2005-08-01 00:33:18 UTC
I compiled 2.6.12.3 with acpi-20050729 patch from acpi.sourceforge.net:
frequency works, backlight switch (on/off) works but battery status doesn't
work, it says there's no battery.
Will try later with 2.6.13-rc4-mm1.
Comment 11 Milo Casagrande 2005-08-02 02:05:18 UTC
Compiled 2.6.13-rc4-mm1 but nothing works: frequency, backlight and even battery.
If some output are needed, ask me.
Comment 12 Len Brown 2005-08-16 15:29:53 UTC
Is it possible to compare:
2.6.13 -- latest kernel.org tree w/o any mm or ACPI patches
2.6.13 + latest ACPI patch
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.13/
2.6.13 + latest mm patch
Comment 13 Milo Casagrande 2005-08-20 08:09:03 UTC
Here the results:
2.6.13-rc6: frequency scaling works, battery status and backlight don't work.
2.6.13-rc6 + ACPI patch: frequency and backlight work, battery doesn't. At boot
it says: "ACPI unable to load the System Description Tables"
2.6.13-rc6 + mm patch: as 2.6.13-rc6 + ACPI patch.

with ACPI and mm patch when i plug in/out the AC adapter the brightness is
adjusting automatically.

> Unable to load the System Description Tables

That means ACPI bailed out and you are running with it disabled.
Please re-test with 2.6.13 final.  If it still
fails this way, build it with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
and attach the output from dmesg -s64000.
Comment 15 Milo Casagrande 2005-09-10 12:55:15 UTC
Now with 2.6.13.1 ACPI doesn't complain anymore, but only frequency works.

It seems that it is another problem with EC device.

Please test linux-2.6.14-rc1 with ec_burst=1.

No response from bug submitter for 2 months. Please reopen if bug is still present.
Comment 21 Milo Casagrande 2005-11-20 05:51:10 UTC
I've tried 2.6.14 with no patch: CPU frequency is not working, battery and
backlight switch also are not working.
I'm going to try with the 2.6.14.2 and also with 2.6.14-mm2 patch.
Thanks!

Did you try command line option "ec_burst=1", suggested in #19?
Comment 29 Milo Casagrande 2005-12-03 02:25:05 UTC
I did try with `ec_burst=1` on kernel 2.6.14.3, but it is not working. With
2.6.14.3 even the CPU frequency is not working.
Comment 30 Alexey Starikovskiy 2006-07-11 03:45:26 UTC
Please try latest stable kernel with patch from
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6455
Please also try 2.6.18-rc1 -- it should have all these patches applied.
Regarding processor control, please attach your .config and /proc/cpuinfo.
Comment 31 Milo Casagrande 2006-07-26 11:59:17 UTC
I compiled 2.6.18-rc2 and everything now is working. I only have some issue with
suspend (it is not working... but I don't use it very often).
Thank you!
