Linux 6.6.4 messages (output of `dmesg`)

On a Dell XPS 15 7590/0VYV0G, BIOS 1.24.0 09/11/2023, Debian’s Linux kernel 6.6.4 (and before) logs the error below:

    [    0.228085] ACPI Error: AE_ERROR, Returned by Handler for [PCI_Config] (20230628/evregion-300)
    [    0.228095] ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.PCI0._INI due to previous error (AE_ERROR) (20230628/psparse-529)

What can be done about this?

Comment 3 Artem S. Tashkinov 2023-12-20 06:39:15 UTC
Does this error result in a loss of function or any bugs? If not, it's safe to dismiss it.
Comment 4 Paul Menzel 2023-12-20 07:07:30 UTC
No idea. The battery drains very quickly, and dual graphics sometimes lags. Regardless, dismissing error message is a bad suggestion, as it is going to cause to miss important errors.

Due to what policy did you resolve this issue?

@Artem, notebook became slow responsive since then. I can't guarantee it happens because of this error, but it worth of investigating.

@Paul, thanks for reporting.
