ACPI Error (evevent-....): No installed hander for fixed event
 

Hya,

My penguin (Debian, etch/lenny) says (dmesg and syslog)What does this mean?

Depending on the version of the kernel, evevent-0314 or evevent-0305 and date is different. (I tried 2.6.15, 2.6.[17-22])

Is this message related to non-functioning USB and/or eth0?

And I see this message before NETDEV WATCHDOG:eth0 transmit timed out. Then network dies.

I appreciate any information.

Happy Penguins!

I am tracing kernel source,

The function, acpi_ev_fixed_event_dispatch in drivers/acpi/events/evevent.c, issues this message (when handler does not exist) and seems to disable the offending event for further interrupts.

So, I do not understand often why I am getting this message more than twice.

Any information will be appreciated.

Happy Penguins!

Hya,

I just found that hibernation does not work either.

A lot of message comes but it is impossible to redirect to file. Following is just a part of messages.

I am not sure if this is related.

Any input will be appreciated.

Happy Penguins!

Hya,

Apology. My post yesterday, about hibernation and ACPI error: It was my mistake, my kernel did not have suspend option on. Hibernation works, (not quite with 2.6.20.11 kernel, it does not power off until I hit return key, 2.6.22.5 works well) Still these errors show.

Happy Penguins!

edit: 2.6.22 kernel works fine.

Hya,

I installed FreeBSD 6.2. It also saysHappy Penguins!
