Always had this issue, first tested kernel is with the stock on 2008.0 CD which I believe is 2.6.27-r9. /proc/acpi/ac_adapter is always empty so Gentoo thinks it is always working on battery. Currently use 2.6.29-r1. Laptop is Sager NP8660. This is probably a problem in vanilla too but they don't take reports from dist specific kernels. And yes, Sager says it's *nix fault and would not do anything unless I could prove it was their fault - of course. Barked up that tree. DSDT only shows 3 warnings.

Another person with Sager and the same problems. http://forum.sabayonlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=15873 Do you have the latest bios for your system?
I have as of January I believe. Sager does not publicly list them and you have to ask them via email if there's an update. Let's see if they respond to my email this time. I have no errors and 3 warnings. I've been curious of just deleting the two OR lines since they're not used. Not quite sure to do with the middle one. >iasl -tc dsdt.dsl Intel ACPI Component Architecture ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20090123 [Apr 22 2009] Copyright (C) 2000 - 2009 Intel Corporation Supports ACPI Specification Revision 3.0a dsdt.dsl 2180: Or (TMOR, TMPV) Warning 1105 - Result is not used, operator has no effect ^ dsdt.dsl 5462: Method (WMAB, 3, NotSerialized) Warning 1087 - ^ Not all control paths return a value (WMAB) dsdt.dsl 7027: Or (TMOR, TMPV) Warning 1105 - ^ Result is not used, operator has no effect ASL Input: dsdt.dsl - 8309 lines, 329717 bytes, 3041 keywords AML Output: dsdt.aml - 32473 bytes, 724 named objects, 2317 executable opcodes Compilation complete. 0 Errors, 3 Warnings, 0 Remarks, 41 Optimizations
(In reply to comment #2) > I have no errors and 3 warnings. I've been curious of just deleting the two OR > lines since they're not used. Not quite sure to do with the middle one. Regarding the "Not all control paths" one, I found the following link in the internets which you may find of use: http://users.telenet.be/PrittyFlemishPages/linux/aspire1800_3.html
Thank you for that George, the warning for that statement is gone. Is it actually safe for me to delete the lines for the other two warnings: dsdt.dsl 2180: Or (TMOR, TMPV) Warning 1105 - Result is not used, operator has no effect ^ dsdt.dsl 7027: Or (TMOR, TMPV) Warning 1105 - ^ Result is not used, operator has no effect My knowledge of assembly says yes but just want to make sure. I will add the custom DSDT tonight/tomorrow and report back the findings.
Reread your post Mike, that actually fixed it. Guess I skimmed too much the first time. http://forum.sabayonlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=15873 works. Note I also fixed DSDT of the 1 warning George pointed out, might be a combo of both. Thanks for your comments! Now I just wish nvidia would get on the ball about powermizer. Solution: Recompile acpi options that default as modules to kernel accept for AC adapter. 2.6.29-r1 would not allow me to do video as part of the kernel, but it still worked as a module.
