Summary: ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device 'on' Product: ACPI Version: 2.5 KernelVersion: 2.6.24-rc3 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Power-Thermal AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: I really don't know, I think I have this problem since end 2006 / start 2007. Distribution: gentoo x86 Hardware Environment: Abit IC7-G Software Environment: Portage 2.1.4_rc4 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.2.2, glibc-2.7-r0, 2.6.24-rc3 i686) Problem Description: With FanEQ on, in the bios (if under 55°C then 60% fan speed) acpi is spamming my messages file every six secconds see attachment dmesg_acpi. Without logrotate my messages file would be 200mb+ today. This is really annoying. Now I turned off this FanEQ thing in the bios and there are no bad acpi messages. My fan is really loud now, is there a other way to contol it btw? If you google for "unable to turn cooling device" you can see I'm not the only one where this happens. Bugs #9227 and #9432 are related. Steps to reproduce: throttle cpu fan speed per bios, get the cpu hotter than ??°C and check dmesg. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
