Dear All!
A few weeks ago i was asking here about how to get my Subj's ACPI to
work properly.
Now i have read more about this and kindly asking for some additional help.
What i have:
I did search for new bios update, dsdt files anything for my notebook
and found out nothing that could be helpful. New bios changing unneeded
features (i have no problems with TV hot key that bios update provides
and i found no DSDT file for my notebook even for similar and
unfocheantly i could not understand what should i do with asl/dsdt files)
I was trying to run devd to monitor at least my battery and added the
following to the end of devd.conf file (actualy exactly from the example)

notify 10 {
        match "system" "ACPI";
        match "subsystem" "ACAD";
        action "/etc/acpi_ac $notify";
};
notify 10 {
        match "system" "ACPI";
        match "subsystem" "CMBAT";
        action "/etc/acpi_ac $notify";
};

and i did create file /etc/acpi_ac $notify
that is writing $notify ($1) to the log just to find out what is going
to happend

i did start devd daemon and got nothing in the log even when my notebook
switches to the battery and working on it till the very power loss.

according to reccomendations in
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/acpi-debug.html
i did a dump even not changing names :)
acpidump -t -d -o foo.dsdt > foo.asl
then tryed to recompile the disassembled file
iasl foo.asl
And got two errors (and a few warnings that i could ignore according to
the mentioned handbook page)
foo.asl 908: If (LNot (LEqual (ShiftRight
(And (Local1, 0x10), 0x03), And (Local2, 0x02))))
Error 1013 - Method local variable is not
initialized ^ (Local1)
 
foo.asl 2321: Name (_HID, "*SYN0106")
Error 1068 - String must be entirely alphanumeric ^ (*SYN0106)
 
Could someone please give me the place to read about what should i do
because man pages are nt very descriptive. Or maybe someone already
solved this? Any help will be appreciated.
