Public bug reported: Hi there,
I'm getting this tpe of lines with dmesg: [ 274.924000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 328.416000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 378.072000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 408.960000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 459.000000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 648.496000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 821.572000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 834.412000] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [etc etc] This is on a MacBook Pro with Kubuntu Feisty updated in 01/03/07 with 2.6.20-13-generic kernel. I've investigated a little bit and found that applesmc is a driver to control some Intel Mac's stuff, as it says the description: "This driver provides support for the Apple System Management Controller, which provides an accelerometer (Apple Sudden Motion Sensor), light sensors, temperature sensors, keyboard backlight control and fan control. Only Intel-based Apple's computers are supported (MacBook Pro, MacBook, MacMini)." The author of the driver is related to Mactel people and seem he has already some patches for it since 19/03, you can find them here: http://lwn.net/Articles/226624/ . I don't know if he has more patches than those one posted there, btw, maybe we could contact him or something. Thanks. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/102270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
