Talk:ACPI/Fix common problems

I've broken the page into more manageable sections, mainly following http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/ACPI/Fix_common_problems. It still needs to be properly formatted and most probably rewritten to follow the style guides. Ara 02:43, 6 January 2010 (GMT)
 * I've just fixed (I hope) my dsdt table and discovered that the gentoo-sources dont need to be patched, but I am not sure as of which kernel. Ara 04:40, 6 January 2010 (GMT)

About this part:

So, the _GLK method has too many arguments. Let's get rid of them. We can fix this by changing line 2672 from this: Method (_GLK, 1, NotSerialized) to this: Method (_GLK)

I believe the correct fix would be

Method (_GLK, 0, NotSerialized)

As per the little I learned to fix my own dsdt, this is a method definition statement, and the 2nd arg of this statement is the number of args that the method will take when called, as this is a reserved method, it should have 0 args defined per the ACPI spec. FEN 11:25, 19 May 2011 (GMT)
