Hi,

since I updated a ThinkPad X40 laptop running NetBSD/i386 (GENERIC_LAPTOP)
from 3.99.6 to 3.99.7 I see lots of ACPI error messages:

$ dmesg
 (Node 0xc19f8a00), AE_NOT_EXIST
    ACPI-0255: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.USB7.URTH.UPDK._STA] (Node 0xc19f8a00), AE_NOT_EXIST

Full dmesg output can be found [1]here. With a [2]3.99.6 kernel I don't see
these messages.

Is this related to the recent pci fixup changes, or to the recent addition
of 'acpi0 at mainbus0' in GENERIC_LAPTOP? How can this be solved?


Help is appreciated.

TIA, Jukka
