Greetings,

Did anyone got this error when sending whatever to /proc/acpi/call ?

failed: AE_NOT_FOUND


i modified a little the script (test_off.sh) to be able to understand why it
wasn't returning "failed" or "ok", here is the script:

#!/bin/bash

    methods="
    \_SB.PCI0.P0P1.VGA._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.P0P2.VGA._OFF
    \_SB_.PCI0.OVGA.ATPX
    \_SB_.PCI0.OVGA.XTPX
    \_SB.PCI0.P0P2.PEGP._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.MXR0.MXM0._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0.DOFF
    \_SB.PCI0.XVR0.Z01I.DGOF
    \_SB.PCI0.PEGR.GFX0._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.PEG.VID._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.P0P2.DGPU._OFF
    \_SB.PCI0.IXVE.IGPU.DGOF
    \_SB.PCI0.RP00.VGA._PS3
    \_SB.PCI0.RP00.VGA.P3MO
    \_SB.PCI0.GFX0.DSM._T_0
    "

    for m in $methods; do
        #echo -n "Trying $m: "
        echo $m > /proc/acpi/call
        result=$(cat /proc/acpi/call)
        if [ "$result" =  "ok" ]; then
            echo "works!"
            break
        elif [ "$result" = "failed" ]; then
            echo "failed"
        else
            echo "$result"
        fi
    done



acpi_call is loaded:
# lsmod | grep acpi_call
acpi_call               2671  0


My guess is that is something with the acpi_call

Any help on this please?

Thanks
