[Fabio Comolli]

Hi all.
As the subject says:

ACPI Warning (nspredef-0858): \_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.BAT0._BIF: Return
Package type mismatch at index 11 - found Buffer, expected String
[20080926]

No functional problems so far.

RE: ACPI warning in 2.6.28-rc1

[Moore, Robert]

Please send the acpidump for the machine so we can look at the method.
Thanks,
Bob

[Moore, Robert]

Thanks.

The Linux battery driver can in fact handle the buffer where there should be a string, so this warning can be ignored.

The acpidump is very helpful for characterizing the problem, and we are investigating the proper course of action.
