What information are useful? I have put some log-files here:

http://web746.webbox240.server-home.org/acpi/acpid
http://web746.webbox240.server-home.org/acpi/acpi.log

There simply is no S{1,2,3,4,5} with this laptop. It won't even
power-off itself after halt.

I discovered that, sadly.

errors. This is confusing, it should work well cause they are only

warnings when compiling /proc/acpi/dsdt with the iasl-compiler, but no

compile-time working doesn't mean run-time working.

compile-time working doesn't mean run-time working.


Anyway, Sebastian Lammermann managed to turn all warnings down by
rewriting the DSDT, but one. Unfortunately the behavior didn't change,
shutdown is still not working.

The last unsolved warning:

dsdt.dsl  1164: Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized)
Warning  1075 -^ Reserved method has too many
arguments (_OSC requires 4)

If anyone please have a look at the DSDT, it would be very kind! I'm
really desperate to get this thing working under Linux.

please in details...




I mailed BenQ about this problem, they even replied which surprised me a
bit. They promised to pass the mail to their developers, but I don't
think it will change something... I reckon I'm not the first one who
mailed them about that.


That's interesting.. BenQ begins to care about linux?

BenQ S73U - no ACPI

2007-05-09 Thread Jan Willies

Hello,

I got a BenQ S73U and it doesn't support ACPI very well. I got 23 
warnings when compiling /proc/acpi/dsdt with the iasl-compiler, but no 
errors. This is confusing, it should work well cause they are only 
warnings, not errors!

PS. If you want a nice office-laptop, apart from the ACPI-stuff, the 
S73U is a good deal for 599€ ;-)
