ACPI errors since last update

Although my system appears to be working fine I am consistently getting dmesg and journalctl ACPI Warnings - aobut 10 of them after every reboot. They are:

 ACPI Warning: \_SB_.PCI0.IXVE.IGPU._DSM: Argument #4 type mismatch - Found [Buffer], ACPI requires [Package] (20131115/nsarguments-95)

A search reveals only one partly useful link that states it may have to do with slight busts in the nVidia package for whatever video chip I am using. Just wonder if anyone else is getting these and if they have found a solution??

PS: using nVidia-304xx with a GeForce8200 chip (latest nVidia driver does not work with that chip). Not that this has anything to do with my problem above....

Re: ACPI errors since last update

I keep getting those errors, did you solve it?
I run 3.13.11-2-ck with nvidia.
