I put CURRENT on a new Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop this weekend.  Works fine,
but I keep getting these messages:

    ACPI-0294: *** Error: Method execution failed, AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE

The messages are logged once every few seconds, and every time I e g remove
or insert a battery.

I'm not sure what the message means, but then I haven't delved into it
beyond searching the mailing list archives (nothing much turned up).

Is it
    A) something to worry about?
    B) something related to some part of the laptop hardware being unknown,
       and thus
    C) something that I ought to endeavour to fix, having the hardware?

Advice and pointers sought.

Magnus
