dmesg output when debug-acpi is enabled in kernelconfig
Hi
i recompiled my kernel with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y and attached the full dmesg
output. Unfortunately the powernow-k8 driver stays quiet and does not say why
he is not using acpi.
Greetings Jan
I tried kernel 2.6.10-rc2-mm1 but it would not boot under fedora. So i fired up Debian (testing/i386) and tried the kernel there. Powernow is working : powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon 64 / Opteron processors (version 1.00.09e) powernow-k8: 0 : fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 (1100 mV) powernow-k8: 1 : fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0x6 (1400 mV) powernow-k8: 2 : fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x2 (1500 mV) So could you please update the powernow driver in Fedora Cores kernel, so that me and others could use this feature. Thank Jan I'd like to confirm the bug; I also have an MSI K8T Neo with latest bios (1.8), and see the same error on bootup. I'm also running FC3 x86_64. linux Kernel 2.6.10-rc2 runs fine under fedora core 3 und has the problem fixed (at least for me), so you may want to try this kernel out. Greetings Jan It seems that the issue has reappeared in Fedora core 4 Kernel 2.6.11-1.1369. NET: Registered protocol family 1 NET: Registered protocol family 17 powernow-k8: Found 2 AMD Athlon 64 / Opteron processors (version 1.40.2) powernow-k8: MP systems not supported by PSB BIOS structure powernow-k8: MP systems not supported by PSB BIOS structure ACPI wakeup devices: PCI1 USB0 USB1 UAR1 GOLA GLAN GOLB SMBC AC97 MODM PWRB ACPI: (supports S0 S1 S4 S5) An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. Fedora Core 4 and kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 still has this problem. dmesg is showing powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon 64 / Opteron processors (version 1.50.4) powernow-k8: BIOS error: numpst must be 1 The system is running on a Mobile AMD Sempron 3000+. Also, running service cpuspeed restart gives: FATAL: Error inserting powernow_k8 (/lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1656_FC4/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko): No such device The file powernow-k8.ko is there, though. |
