Hi;
I have just started to receive the following message at boot up
immediately after kernel ( 2.6.24.3-12.fc8 ) expansion:
"PNPACPI exceeds the maximum number of memory resources: 12"
I googled to
http://howto.wikia.com/wiki/Howto_configure_the_Linux_kernel/drivers/pnp/pnpacpi
and got the following advice:
"Option: PNPACPI
* Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
* (on/off) Plug and Play ACPI support (EXPERIMENTAL)
* depends on PNP && ACPI && EXPERIMENTAL
* default y
Linux uses the PNPACPI to autodetect built-in
mainboard resources (e.g. parallel port
resources). **: Some features (e.g. real
hotplug) are not currently implemented. **: If
you would like the kernel to detect and allocate
resources to your mainboard devices (on some
systems they are disabled by the BIOS) say Y
here. Also the PNPACPI can help prevent resource
conflicts between mainboard devices and other
bus devices.
Linux Kernel Configuration"
What is this telling me to do? It (and others like it) don't make sense
to me.
