Please verify that you're running the latest released BIOS. Please attach the output from acpidump -- available in the latest pmtools here: http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/ Some more info from the syslog. This is now the beggining of the error.

acpidump
I did a acpidump -o acpidump.out as said in the README.
Thanks!
Fixed in version 20051117 The METHOD_LIMIT error should go away completely. The ALREADY_EXISTS error will happen once or twice. After that, the method is marked non-reentrant and the error will no longer happen. We are investigating an enhancement to get rid of the ALREADY_EXISTS error completely. *** Bug 5490 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** ACPICA 20060127 shipped in Linux-2.6.16-rc1-git6 -- closing. |
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: Distribution: Debian Sid/Unstable Hardware Environment: IBM T42 Software Environment: Debian Sid Problem Description: Problem occurs after I leave the PC for some long time with xlock running. Steps to reproduce: Problem occurs after I leave the PC for some long time with xlock running. (I use tpb to manage buttons, I leave xlock -mode matrix and then get back after some time. It might give the problem or might not, is really random.
