Boot errors

Hi all,

I have a HP Elitebook 850 G3 with two graphic cards. I do not know which one is in use but want to be able to change them. I am a bit confused, what I have to install an configure :-)
Also I found some ACPI and EFI errors I do not find some help via google. How can I fix them?

journalctl:
Apr 21 19:10:11 archhost kernel: efi: requested map not found.
Apr 21 19:10:11 archhost kernel: esrt: ESRT header is not in the memory map.

dmesg:

Re: Boot errors

For hybrid graphics (I think your laptop's discrete graphics card is from AMD): https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PRIME. I have no clue about the ACPI errors.

Also, please use code tags when posting output.

Re: Boot errors

Both the ACPI and EFI/ESRT errors are triggered by firmware the linux kernel could not parse.
You could try reporting the issues upstream to the linux kernel developers but I suspect the bug reports would be closed as wont fix seek new firmware from your hardware vendor.
Are you experiencing any issues you believe are caused by these error messages?

What exactly does this mean?  Is a display manager or graphical boot failing?  Can you switch to another terminal with Ctrl + Alt + F2?

What boot parameters exactly did you add?
Please post the journal for a failing boot.  Boot from live media if needed to obtain the journal and use the tip from List_of_applications#Pastebin_clients to post from the console.

Re: Boot errors

It boots now again. It was the 20-radeon.conf under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

Re: Boot errors

The ACPI errors are printed at boot since some 4.9.x kernel - they've usually been there all the time but are now prominently exposed.
If you don't have (new) problems that smell ACPI related, you can safely ignore them. They just mean that board vendors implement ACPI by poking around until it works on the windows version they're currently using...
