      We are struggling for the future of our planet, please help us.
                 Only together we can stand for our nature!

   [1]Send a message to the "Environmental Protection Agency and Food and
   Drug Administration" to improve mercury testing so we can keep tuna
   safe for our families and for dolphins.

   Some of the tuna producers -- particularly in Ecuador and Mexico --
   use practices that can hurt or kill dolphins and catch tuna with
   increased mercury levels.

   Since the late 1950s, approximately seven million dolphins have died
   from this practice. 

   [2]Sign for it - help yourself and thousands of other lives.

   One another way you can help us is to send this letter or the link to
   our website: http://www.against-cruelty.com/register.htm- to all
   people you know.

ACPI gurus,

My colleague has installed FreeBSD 6.1-table onto his
Alienware MJ-12 laptop.  During the boot process, we
see

acpi0: [MPSAFE]
    ACPI-0438: *** Error: Looking up [\\_SB_.PCI0.PIB_.LNKH] in namespace, AE_NOT_FOUND

The system boots and appears to function (although cardbus seems broken).
I've roamed Alienware's web site and used google to search for an BIOS
update without success.

Are these messages something to worry about?  Anyone know how to fix
the problem.

I've put a verbose boot meesage at

Well, that's probably why cardbus is broken.  Can you get the output of 
acpidump?  Specifically I'd be interested in the parts that mention LNKH (as 
well as where it actually lives in the device tree).

Thanks for the quick response.  I'll get you the requested
info tomorrow morning (need to leave in 5 minutes to go 
stand on a little league field in 95 degrees temperatures).

Just for the record, the usage is:

Greetings and salutations,

Is there anything I can do to get Fn key functionality on
my Dell E1405 notebook?  I've seen the patches for video
switching and will try them at some point, but it's not
as important to me as getting suspend/resume and wireless
radio on/off.  Also getting the CD/DVD drive to eject would
be nice.

I'm using the latest and greatest BIOS on this system, and
the output of 'acpidump -dt' is at:

   http://people.freebsd.org/~deischen/e1405.acpi.dump

FYI, I can get the system to suspend by hitting the power
button or by Fn+Esc (standby), but it will not wakeup
no matter what I do.  Also, the wireless radio (Fn+F2)
will turn the radio off, but will not toggle it back
on.  Fn+F8 (CRT/LCD) does not work (will try those
patches) and Fn+F10 (eject CD/DVD), Fn+PageUp (vol
up), Fn+PageDown (vol down), Fn+End (mute), also
do not work.

Thanks,

John, 

The pattern LNKH appears in multiple places throughout the asl file.
Instead of sending seemly random chucks to the list, the entire asl
can be found at (uncompressed and gzipped)

I guess it's not a huge surprise, but I can't find a link device
named LINKH.  Might this be a broken DSDT?  Have you checked for an
updated BIOS and/or had a second-look at your BIOS setup?

Yes, I checked the Alienware website for an updated BIOS.
It's a Phoenix BIOS, which has very few knobs in the BIOS
setup.  My next step I guess is to try to contact the Alienware
tech support to see if a BIOS is available through a 
specific request.

I'll have to locate a live cd of 6.1 Release because I'm
fairly certain that I had the wireless nic working.

Note the INTA which, I think, isn't related to

I'm not sure at all, though.

port the nice linux i8ktools to freebsd before i do :-)

i started last weekend (i only have hxring time on the weekends) and i am
sure that i will eventually finish it successfully if somebody else doesnt
do it first.

i dont know if it will look much like the linux version when i am
finished, it makes use of the proc filesystem.

we do have a proc filesystem that we can kldload, but i am not sure how
robust it is and i dont want to be requiring an additional kld if my code
would be the only one using it.

it also uses a kernel timer to manage checking the keystrokes, i am not
sure if i wanna do that, i'd rather limit the kernel part to be limited to
the creation of /dev/smm and let the rest of the stuff happen in a daemon,
but i havent gotten far enuf along to have a coherent opinion ( i just
finally got the assembly code working to the point where i can get the
bios version back - banal, but critical :-) )

not wake up or not restore the display? can you ping it?

that's odd, i would have expected it to not work period.

I do not know what they are.  I would expect my keys to work
without using a port (assuming you turned i8ktools into a port)

I'm not that dense!  The system is suspended -- no pingy,
no fanny, no disky, no LEDy, no nothing.

You have some of the most incompetent BIOS writers I've ever seen working on 
your machine I'm afraid.  First off, there is no LNKH device on your system.  
You do have various pci_link devices.  Four for APIC: ALKA, ALKB, ALKC, and 
ALKD, and four for non-APIC: LNKA, LNKB, LNKC, LNKD.  Not only that, but they 
all live in \_SB_.PCI0.PCIB.  Some places refer to LNKH via 
\_SB_.PCI0.PCIB.LNKH (as do all places for LNKA - LNKD it seems) but others 
refer to it as \_SB_.PCI0.LNKH.  Anyways, I think you might be fine if you 
always use 'device apic', as the PCI interrupt routing tables for the APIC 
case don't seem to reference LNKH.  I think it will only go down in flames 
this way if you disable APIC (via hint or not including 'device apic' in your 
kernel config).

Thanks for the help.  The asl file might as well be greek or chinese
or any other language that I don't speak. :(

I'll need to follow up tomorrow because the laptop is currently

Actually, I don't think Phoenix gets all the blame.  I believe
that Phoenix provides a toolkit which board manufacturers customize.
So it's probably not Phoenix writing the bum ASL you're seeing.

That's correct.  Phoenix produces a tool that has some example ASL.  The 
Chinese/Taiwanese company that actually makes the laptop (e.g., Compal) 
subcontracts out the BIOS customization to an small firm (2 guys) that 
bang on it until it boots Windows.

On my Inspiron 8600, nearly all Fn keys produce plain key scancodes,
that you can assign to specific commands in X.

I have the following keycodes in .xmodmaprc

keycode 164 = XF86AudioStop
keycode 137 = XF86Eject
keycode 162 = XF86AudioPause
keycode 160 = XF86AudioStop
keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext
keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev
keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume
keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute

Please check those values with xev(1). You would then have to assign
specific commands to these keys with the help of your window manager.

Funny side note: The brightness up/down combo does NOT generate any kind
of keycode ... BUT when I turn the brightness up or down while xpdf(1)
has the focus, xpdf(1) will enter an infinite refresh loop and needs to
be killed. Very strange ....
