From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: kernel: ACPI: acpi_ec_space_handler: bit_width should be 8 I am getting the above error in /var/log/messages over and over again,as well as the console. It started when something else was upgraded during a yum update. The first thing I noticed was that the power indicator in KDE started to accuratly reflect if I was running off battery or power cord. The battery level never rises from 0% (Another issue I'd like to get fixed so if it isn't related please let me know and I'll file another bug report.) It was after the updates that made these changes that I started seeing the error. The specs on my laptop are located here: http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/Gateway/200ARC/3501609sp83.shtml Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.
