Re: EeePC, 5.0: acpitz gets wrong temperature
Hi Henri, Le mercredi 2 C 20:48, Henri Kemppainen a C)crit : I just installed a snapshot (dated Oct 19) of -current on a new EeePC 1001PXD. The installation itself went fine. However, on the first boot, even before I can see the login prompt, acpitz decides to shutdown the machine: acpitz0: critical temperature exceeded 255C (5282K), shutting down `dmesg' with this patch is at: http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-5.0-nohaltoncrit From your dmesg: acpiec _REG failed, broken BIOS ASUS has a BIOS update (0702; 2011.04.13) with the this description: Update EC firmware I'd try that. Tell me if it fixes the problem. Thanks for the suggestion. I updated the BIOS. The only relevant difference I see in dmesg is the new version number of the BIOS; I still have the message about a broken BIOS and acpitz finding the temperature too high. For the record: http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-5.0-nohaltoncrit-newbios I've been paying closer attention to the dmesg from Linux and FreeBSD, and indeed, in both cases, I see messages about flaky things in the BIOS. However, both Linux and FreeBSD are able to see the correct temperature. For instanace, under FreeBSD: # sysctl -a ... hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature: 57.0C http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-freebsd9rc1 http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/sysctl-a.lapin-freebsd9rc1 Linux: http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-linux [0.168433] ACPI: EC: EC description table is found, configuring boot EC (I don't know if the EC table was available before the BIOS update; all I know is that Linux was able to get the correct temperature/) [0.249652] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored ...

I am far from an expert in ACPI; I have no idea what an EC table is, for instance, and maybe I'm missing something obvious. -- Fred
Re: EeePC, 5.0: acpitz gets wrong temperature
Hello,
Le samedi 22 C 11:15, FrC)dC)ric Perrin a C)crit :
I just installed a snapshot (dated Oct 19) of -current on a new EeePC
1001PXD. The installation itself went fine. However, on the first boot,
even before I can see the login prompt, acpitz decides to shutdown the
machine:
acpitz0: critical temperature exceeded 255C (5282K), shutting down
Same thing happens with 5.0. If somebody wants to investigate:
`dmesg' from 5.0's ramdisk is at :
http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-5.0-ramdisk
`dmesg' from 5.0's kernel with ACPI disabled is at:
http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-5.0-noacpi
`sysctl -a' is at:
http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/sysctl.lapin-5.0-noacpi
I applied the following, and rebooted without disabling ACPI:

+ printf(%s: for the record, _HOT is %dC (%dK)\n,
+ DEVNAME(sc), KTOC(sc-sc_hot), sc-sc_hot);
}
acpitz spams about every 10 seconds the following:
acpitz0: temperature 255C (5282K) = 98C (3712K)
acpitz0: for the record, _HOT is -273C (-1K)
`dmesg' with this patch is at:
http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/dmesg.lapin-5.0-nohaltoncrit
`sysctl -a' is at:
http://tar-jx.bz/stuff/sysctl.lapin-5.0-nohaltoncrit
Is there anything else I can try?
Of course, the temperature of the laptop is nowhere near 255C. This
happened with both amd64 and i386. I tried again this morning after
shutting down the laptop last evening, so the temperature should have
been much above 20C. Under Linux, I see the following (temperatures in
milliCelsius):
