[Bug 58386] Re: ACPI: Looking for DSDT ... not found! (message during boot)

[Bogdan Butnaru]

Re-opening (I think). Even if this is not a real "error" (ie, if not
having a DSDT is a normal situation), this is still a user-interface
bug: it should not be reported as a boot-time error. The message should
be changed to something more descriptive, like "file /DSDT.aml not
found, using defaults" or whatever is appropriate.

I couldn't find any recent docs on this, what is it supposed to do,
anyway? I'm always having issues with ACPI and I'm always on the look
for hacks. Is there anything I can do (ie, compile a file) and perhaps
include it in a package to help support my laptop type better (Dell
Latitude D620).

I'm attaching 2.6.22 too, as I still get this message on Gutsy with the
newest kernel.
