kernel 2.6.8.1-mm1 ACPI bug ?

Hi all,

it seems like there is a strange ACPI related bug in the current -mm patch set... ? At least with my configuration the following happens:

With vanilla kernel 2.6.7 oder 2.6.8 I get the following at bootup:

ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ1] (30 C)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ2] (29 C)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ3] (26 C)
cpufreq: CPU0 - ACPI performance management activated.
ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S4bios S5)

With the current -mm patchset (at least with 2.6.8 rc to .1) I get the following:

ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ1] (16 C)
ACPI-1133: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_TZ_.C204] (Node
dff45e00), AE_AML_PACKAGE_LIMIT
ACPI-1133: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_TZ_.C203] (Node
dff45c20), AE_AML_PACKAGE_LIMIT
ACPI-1133: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_TZ_.TZ2_._TMP]
(Node dff46580), AE_AML_PACKAGE_LIMIT
ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ3] (31 C)
cpufreq: CPU0 - ACPI performance management activated.
ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S4bios S5)

My hardware is a HP compaq nc8000, Pentium-M.
The problem is that with the -mm kernels the CPU fan stops to work - causing temperature to raise very high ...... :-(

Are there any known problems ?

thanks,

Maximilian
