Greetings all;
running an iso from linuxcnc.org based on stretch. s/b all upto date.

from uname -a
Linux coyote 4.9.0-9-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Debian 4.9.168-1+deb9u5 
(2019-08-11) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I just rebooted a couple times, basicly looking for the 
correct /dev/ttyUSB# to assign to heyu that would be the correct one to 
connect it to the cm11a. udev seems to enjoy confusing that port.

But the first reboot had a stanza in dmesg fussing about IOMMU being 
disabled in the bios. So I rebooted again and poked around in the bios 
without finding any reference to IOMMU.  I don't believe I actually 
changed anything.  But I saved and rebooted anyway.

Now the IOMMU related msgs are gone, but this remains in dmesg:
0.000000] ACPI BIOS Warning (bug): 32/64X length mismatch in 
FADT/Pm1aEventBlock: 32/8 (20160831/tbfadt-603)

Which I don't recall seeing in the previous decade of running this 
mobo/cpu combo.

Whose bug might this be, or is my cmos battery about to ~30~ on me?

Cheers, Gene Heskett
