Hi,

Is there any place where I can find some explanations about dmesg messages and consequences of their causes (especially for acpi/apic/irq messages) ?

Thanks.

Strings printed out using the 'printk()' function in the kernel appear in the dmesg output. The best place to find the explanation for a particular message would be to figure out which printk() prints the message & trace back to find the cause. There is no other documentation AFAIK.
