RE: Laptop won't power off

Not likely to be cause of power off problems

Compiler runs on linux, should run on bsd.

3) Newer versions of iASL will allow executable statements outside
of
control methods.

So, sorry if I'm a bit slow, but this isn't likely to be the cause to
my problems, isn't it?

Any plan to port a new version of iASL (supporting the new features)
to
FreeBSD?



ASL Optimizing Compiler / AML Disassembler version 20041119 [Feb

2007]

Like mid 2006 and newer.

The problem here is that my laptop doesn't power off when
issuing
halt
-p or shutdown -p now.
This is the machine:

Try disabling SMP so only 1 core is running. Build a kernel
without
SMP
option or at loader prompt type:

set hint.apic.0.disabled="1"

I already tried this way, but without any results... disabling
SMPing
only enables S3 state, which doesn't work otherwise..

Moreover, following the directives on "11.16 Using and Debugging
FreeBSD ACPI" of the FreeBSD handbook, I put my ASL online here:

https://staff.hti.bfh.ch/ctp3/MSI-1034.asl

If I try to recompile it, there are a few errors:

iasl MSI-1034.asl

I solved the first two by putting the function declarations of PRS
and
WAK above the actual call at line 4128 and 4149, but I can't
really
figure out how to fix the third error.

Thanx in advance!
