[Bug 353438] New: acpi spam in messages log and unable to write trip points
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=353438 Summary: acpi spam in messages log and unable to write trip points Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: matthias.sweertvaegher@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- hello, since the beginning of my suse install, I noticed annoying acpi spam in my /var/log/messages. Example: Dec 13 22:07:51 sushi kernel: ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN] to D0 Dec 13 22:07:51 sushi kernel: ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN] to D0 Dec 13 22:07:51 sushi kernel: ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dffefd9c] 'on' Dec 13 22:07:57 sushi kernel: ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN] to D0 Dec 13 22:07:57 sushi kernel: ACPI: Transitioning device [FAN] to D0 Dec 13 22:07:57 sushi kernel: ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [dffefd9c] 'on' as you can see, the message is repeated _every 6 seconds_, which kinda generates a lot of useless logging ;) In my search on the internet, I found a possible workaround: change the trip points so that the acpi module does not feel the need to enable this fan. However, I have tried every possible format, but don't succeed in rewriting the trip points. example: echo -n "80:0:75:60:50" > /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/trip_points does not work. I am not sure if this example is a sensible one, I just copied one of my try-outs out of my bash history although you could blame my bios for reporting wrong information, I think it should at least be possible to rewrite the trip points (or is this too a limitation of my bios?). please provide a fix / workaround -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
