After updating my SuperMicro 370DLE to today's sources, I'm seeing this message scroll repeatedly across my serial console (for different values of N in the range 20-3f ):
ACPI-0988: *** Error: AcpiEvGpeDispatch: No handler or method for GPE[N], disabling event I've appended the boot log. Cheers, Drew PS: ACPI used to fail early in the boot with: ACPI-0204: *** Error: AcpiLoadTables: Could not load namespace: AE_NOT_FOUND ACPI-0213: *** Error: AcpiLoadTables: Could not load tables: AE_NOT_FOUND ACPI: table load failed: AE_NOT_FOUND That no longer seems to happen.
