I am able to successfully install FreeBSD 7.1,7.2,& Current (both i386 & AMD64) without any problems. However when I issue a "shutdown -p now" to power off the machine it fails to power off and it requests that I press a key to reboot it. Directly proceeding the "shutdown -p now" command I receive several error messages on my console: "acpi_ec0: EcRead: failed waiting to get data ACPI Exception: AE_NO_HARDWARE_RESPONSE, Returned by Handler for [EmbeddedControl] 20090521 evregion-531 ACPI Error (psparse-0633): Method parse/execution failed [\PTS] (MOde 0xffffff000253ac0), AE_NO_HARDWARE_REPONSE acpi0: AcpiEnterSleepStatePrep failed - AE_NO_HARDWARE_RESPONSE The operating system has halted. Please press any key to reboot" I have tried disabling ACPI which prevents my machine from booting. 1) A Dmesg with boot-v can be found here: http://jperzel.net/vostro1310/current/dmesgwith-v.log 2) A Dmesg with boot-v and ACPI disabled could not be provided due to my machine not booting when ACPI was disabled. 3) Output from sysctl hw.acpi can be found here: http://jperzel.net/vostro1310/current/sysctlhwacpi.log 4) An ACPIDUMP can be found here: http://jperzel.net/vostro1310/current/dburkland-DellVostro1310.asl I also have made both forum & and mailing (freebsd-acpi with the title "Dell Vostro 1310") posts if you would like what others have said about this problem. I will be more than happy to provide you with any other information you may need. How-To-Repeat: Shutdown -p now or halt -p
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-acpi Sounds like an ACPI problem.
Unmangled version of the diff attached for the 8.0-RELEASE source, I've been using this diff on 8.0-RELEASE AMD64 for the past few month & it kind of works (issuing halt -p when running off battery works, but not if I'm running from the mains, there are lots of errors when switching power sources aswell) Sevan / Venture37
