Description of problem: I got a message as same as the title. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time I boot up the machine Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot up Actual results: I got the following statement: ACPI: Expecting a [Reference] package element, found type 0 ACPI: LNXTHERM:01 is registered as thermal_zone0 ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (40 C) Expected results: May be there should be no this kind of message Additional info:
"ACPI: Expecting a [Reference] package element, found type 0" I'm seeing this as well. It's the one jarring message that interrupts an otherwise clean plymouth bootup. updated plymouth was supposed to have disabled kernel printks during bootup. kernel-2.6.27.5-109.fc10.x86_64 plymouth-0.6.0-0.2008.11.12.4.fc10.x86_64
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
still seeing "ACPI: Expecting a [Reference] package element, found type 0" for ~1.5s before plymouth

Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
