This is due to a change in current git it was not present in 2.6.29. Does booting with acpi_osi=Linux makes things any worse? (it should fix the above error but might make some other functionality behave differently). Or eventually also see if there is a bios upgrade available for your laptop. Len, it looks like most of the vaios define this in global scope: OperationRegion (PRT0, SystemIO, 0x80, 0x04) Field (PRT0, DWordAcc, Lock, Preserve) { P80H, 32 } which falls in the DMA1 reserved area in >WinXP. No idea how windows copes with it if the same restrictions area really in place.

Kernel show the same messages. And there is no bios upgrade for my notebook :( I forgot to say two things: When I loaded the module, a new message appeared (booting with and without acpi_osi=Linux): sony-laptop: Sony Notebook Control Driver v0.6. input: Sony Vaio Keys as /class/input/input9 input: Sony Vaio Jogdial as /class/input/input10 --> [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: ACPI brightness control misses _BQC function sony-laptop: brightness ignored, must be controlled by ACPI video driver And these errors show in any ACPI events (lid open/close, press power button ...), not just in Fn-Keys.

> Does booting with acpi_osi=Linux makes things any worse?
acpi_osi=Linux will make Linux answer YES if/when a BIOS asks OSI(Linux).
However, it does not change if/when the BIOS asks if we are XP,
nor would it change our (YES) answer if asked.
Unlike all previous uses of OSI where what matters is what Linux ANSWERs,
this port blocking feature depends on what the BIOS ASKS.

Hi. I have a Vaio VGN-FW235J and I tried today the latest kernel version in git to test the latest changes in sony-laptop. When I press any Fn-keys, i.e. brightness control, I received these messages in syslog: ACPI Error (hwvalid-0186): Denied AML access to port 0x00000080/4 (DMA1 0x0081-0x0083) [20090320] ACPI Exception (evregion-0422): AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS, Returned by Handler for [SystemIO] [20090320] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\P8XH] (Node f7418c30), AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC__._Q58] (Node f741bc00), AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS ACPI Error (hwvalid-0186): Denied AML access to port 0x00000080/4 (DMA1 0x0081-0x0083) [20090320] ACPI Exception (evregion-0422): AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS, Returned by Handler for [SystemIO] [20090320] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\P8XH] (Node f7418c30), AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC__._Q59] (Node f741bc18), AE_AML_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS Some information from dmidecode: Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes BIOS Information Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.
