LG Gram 17Z990 R.AAS7U1 ACPI Error

Hi All,

I just had that LG Gram. When I installed Arch from a usb, there was an error "ACPI Error: no handler or method for GPE XX, disabling event (20190205/evgpe-835)" being printed on the screen for about 5 mins. Then it stopped and I can install Arch. Now I boot into Arch from the disk, but that error keeps showing on the screen forever. If I add the kernel option "acpi=off" to the systemd boot menu (by pressing 'e', then adding "acpi=off" to the end of the command), I don't see that message anymore but the keyboard stops working.

Does anybody know any way to fix this issue?

Regards.

Update 1: Google found this, but DuckDuckGo didn't.

Update 2: the above link said that option pci=noacpi removed that issue. It worked for me. Another problem is that there's no mouse cursor when I start xorg with startx. Not sure if this issue has anything to do with pci=noacpi

There's an issue on bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203617

...no fixes so far. You can bump up the issue by your information.

There's the patch in the bugzilla issue thread. Already applied it to my kernel. At leask on my 5.1+ kernels application went well and the fix is working.

Still no luck with fingerprint reader support though.
