[arch-general] couple of log messages from kernel 3.2.2
I noticed a couple of messages booting the new 3.2.2 kernel: (I) watchdog: --------------------- [287247.568009] NMI watchdog enabled, takes one hw-pmu counter. [287248.814530] watchdog: INTCAMT: cannot register miscdev on minor=130 (err=-16). [287248.814536] watchdog: error registering /dev/watchdog (err=-16). [287248.814540] mei: unable to register watchdog device. (I) acpi: --------------------- [ 4749.406097] thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal alarm or keyboard event received [ 4749.406108] thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x6040 [ 4749.406114] thinkpad_acpi: please report the conditions when this event happened to ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net [ 4749.406834] thinkpad_acpi: EC reports that Thermal Table has changed suggestions on what I can do to track these down anymore ... or if it could be hard/firm ware issue on this lenovo W520 laptop. thanks. g

I'm getting the watchdog errors as well, on a T520 laptop, was curious of the solution too, but haven't had time to look into it... maybe something to do with Thinkpads? Tim Stella

warning: your thinkpad is superior to all other laptops :p
I'm also getting warnings with a ThinkPad W510.

Tim Stella I'm also getting the watchdog errors, not on a laptop. But mine says NMI watchdog disabled: not supported (no LACPI?) FWIW
I was getting errors similar to those on my thinkpad t520 but after some searching on the forums I added 'blacklist mei' to my modprobe.conf and it did the trick. On Jan 30, 2012 3:17 PM, <rara8avis@aol.com> wrote:

There's some more discussion about this here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=133083&p=1 It seems fairly harmless, from my reading of this thread, and is to do with the kernel not supporting more than one watchdog device. You can blacklist one or the other module if you prefer one watchdog over the other, as far as I understand it. Pete.
