Identifying device ACPI complains about
  • From: Moby <moby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I have a SuSE 10 machine and I noticed that the system log (/var/log/messages) contains many many entries like:

ACPI-0212: *** Warning: Device is not power manageable
ACPI-0629: *** Warning: Unable to turn cooling device [dbfdd7a0] 'on'

I have looked everywhere I could think of with no luck in trying to identify what device it is complaining about and how to get rid of these messages. dmesg, watching the bootup sequence, looking in various files under the acpi folder etc reveal no mention of dbfdd7a0. Is there any way to identify that device and stop the system from constantly complaining about it? I would like to do this without disabling ACPI altogether.

Thanks in advance for any help,
