After performing the requested steps on openSUSE 11.0, /proc/acpi/event generated no output, and /proc/interrupts showed a count of zero for IRQ 9 (ACPI). In contrast, on openSUSE 10.3, /proc/acpi/event logged messages for the lid, the power button, AC and battery. The IRQ 9 count was over 15,000, at last check. The lid and power button events generated 2 interrupts each, and the AC unplug and plug events seemed to trigger multiple interrupts, perhaps due to battery charge level changes. -- 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.

It would be great if you could give this kernel a try: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/i386/kernel-default.rpm (Best install it with rpm -ivh kernel-default.rpm --force --nodeps) Like that (-i instead of -U, Update) you additionally install it and can switch back to your original kernel. This is a 2.6.27-rc3 kernel currently. The IRQ 9 count was over 15,000 is a bit too high. There has code been introduced to detect GPE storms, maybe it kicks in and is disabling the GPE. In 2.6.27 there should also be a debug patch to enable (and check?) the GPE(s) from userspace?: --------- commit 71b58cbb0c30d1f78636a48c4721529449d6ea37 Author: Zhang Rui ACPI: Enhance /sys/firmware/interrupts to allow enable/disable/clear from user-space --------- This post: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/29174 seem to show a similar problem with battery? Rui was deeper involved here and hopefully can help. Still you should first try out .27-rc3 kernel and best do the same IRQ and ACPI event test and have a look at /proc/acpi/interrupts again as you did with 10.3 and 11.0. -- 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.

That said, I am testing with kernel 2.6.27-rc3-HEAD_20080819185209-default

This kernel fixes a multitude of my issues, including this one.

so you can not reproduce the problem with upstream kernel, right? -- 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.

But as this happens only on one specific machine, I'd like to close this one. Looks more like a HW/BIOS issue, is the latest BIOS installed on this machine? Not sure whether to close this as won't fix or invalid (due to probably HW related issues). I take an AMD guy into CC, maybe they know about this. Joachim, this is a: HP Pavilion ze4200 (Linux logs report ze4400) AMD Athlon Mobile 2400+ and has strange IO access problems through ACPI, but only with a -pae kernel.

What I found is that the ACPI mode is discerned by executing the inw instruction (with port 0xfe10 on this machine). The result with the default kernel is 0x0000; the result with the pae kernel is 0xffff. This erroneous state information prevents the "transition" from taking place with the pae kernel. For comparison, on the Athlon 1333 machine the result from the same inw instruction is 0x0000; this is the same with either the default or the pae kernel. -- 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.
