Reply with quote

Well, I'm trying to configure a brand-new ASUS Z71A laptop for a friend, and I keep running into problems on account of it's new-ness.

Here's a snippet of the dmesg output:

Code:

ACPI: AC Adapter [AC0] (on-line)
ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery absent)
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
ACPI: Fan [FN00] (off)
ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C2])
ACPI: Processor [CPU1] (supports 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (61 C)
Asus Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.29
unsupported, trying default values, supply the developers with your DSDT

What is a DSDT, where do I find it, and to which developers am I supposed to send it (gentoo devs, kernel devs, or acpi4asus devs)?

Here's the output of cat /proc/acpi/asus/info

Code:

carl linux # cat /proc/acpi/asus/info
Asus Laptop ACPI Extras Driver 0.29
Model reference : M2E
SFUN value : 0xa17f
DSDT length : 36371
DSDT checksum : 61
DSDT revision : 1
OEM id : 0AAAA
OEM table id : 0AAAA000
OEM revision : 0x0
ASL comp vendor id : INTL
ASL comp revision : 0x2002026
