My journal is flooded with these warnings. Each second a new line is added, it looks like this:

My gpu is Radeon HD 4850, I use Catalyst legacy drivers for this along with Xorg 1.12, as later versions don't support this driver. I don't have any problems, but I certainly don't want to have this warning saved to the journal every second.
I use lxdm for display manager. I tried switching to another one, but there are errors with lightdm and gdm3 hangs the system on boot (no output, just waiting.)
There's nothing on Google. I only found this, which is my exact problem http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions … journalctl but there's no solution.

systemctl --failed
and investigate if you need really need that service and installed all required stuff like acpid
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AM … sd.service
to simply stop the flood
sudo systemctl disable atieventsd
sudo systemctl stop atieventsd
Offline
But is it safe to disable it? I searched and I only found out that this is for power management. But what does power management exactly mean? Wouldn't disabling it cause my graphics card run hotter?

post the result of
pacman -Qs acpid
and
systemctl status -l atieventsd

I installed and enabled acpid recently, thinking it might solve the problem. Both services are running now:
[root@new-host maciek]# pacman -Qs acpid
local/acpid 2.0.23-4
A daemon for delivering ACPI power management events with netlink support
[root@new-host maciek]# systemctl status -l atieventsd

Might be best/quicker to ask Vi0l0 on his aur page for the package you installed
example:
catalyst-total-pxp
P.S.
you will need an AUR login id as it is not the same as the forums
