Asus M6 first battery not detected kernel 2.6.21 and 2.6.22

Hi,
since update to kernel 2.6.21 , i i don't have my battery status. First of all, yes i load the right module, but i get an error in dmesg :
 
ACPI Error (evregion-0316): No handler for Region [ECOR] (c18e763c) [EmbeddedControl] [20070126]
ACPI Error (exfldio-0289): Region EmbeddedControl(3) has no handler [20070126]

I just test the 2.6.22 kernel  of tpowa, but it don't work for me.

Futhermore i have an error in DSDT  :
ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... error, file /DSDT.aml not found.

I try to apply kernel patch but , they seems to already be applied in 2.6.21.5.

Thanks to help me

[EDIT] I just found the patch : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8598 and http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.c … ction=edit

If someone can tell how to patch it in 2.6.21 or 2.6.22
thanks

Re: Asus M6 first battery not detected kernel 2.6.21 and 2.6.22

I already test it!! But it don't solve my battery problem.
So now i solve it with the patch i said , but i can't load the driver ipw2200, i dont understand why it doesnt take it as a module in pkg directory when i built it.
I am compiling it with ipw2200 direct in the kernel , not as a module.

Edit : i'm unable to do my wifi card recognize corectly!! iwconfig don't recognize it, and  it is present when i do a lscpi.

How can i do?

thanks for your answer.

With the new kernel 2.6.22 in testing, the first battery is still not recognized.

Re: Asus M6 first battery not detected kernel 2.6.21 and 2.6.22

Hi,
Thanks to confirm my doubts, they don't apply the patch!!
The patch "try_to_find_EC_harder" solved the problem. Hope that the arch team will integrate it ,in the kernel compilation.
If not add it in the package build.

Would you please open a bug report on the archlinux bugtracker and include the information and the patch? This way, we can add the patch before we move 2.6.22 to current, otherwise this will be forgotten. Also post the link to the bugreport here, as the "master of assigning bugs" is absent right now.

EDIT: never mind, done already: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7598

If you read the bugtracker, you'll notice that the patch you posted broke with some custom dsdt setups, so we had to remove it. Maybe we can work out another solution or find a better patch, but for now, this was the best solution.
