[kern.warning] messages in /var/adm/messages

Hi

Having looked through the log file /var/adm/messages i've noticed these kernel warning messages and i don't know what they mean:

Code:
!-- 		@page { size: 8.5in 11in; margin: 0.79in } 		P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } 	--> 	   cpudrv: [ID 569748 kern.info] NOTICE: cpu_acpi: _TSS package not found.
  cpudrv: [ID 227567 kern.warning] WARNING: cpu_acpi: error parsing _TSS for CPU instance 0
  cpudrv: [ID 888440 kern.warning] WARNING: cpudrv_mach_pm_init: instance 0: unable to initialize T-state support



I have looked google to find an explanation and from the few bits i have found i seems as though it relates to bios. But in the posts i found, those people were using multi-core processors where as i am not (don't know if that's relevant or not).




I'm using a Dell OptiPlex 170L and the processor is Intel Pentium 4.



Does anyone know what they mean and if it means there's a problem what i can do to correct it?

T-State is not supported on your PC (BIOS / CPU).

Please ignore this error as the OS performance is not affected by it.

/var/adm/messages vs /var/log/messages

The /var/adm/messages in Solaris seem to log more system messages/errors compared to /var/log/messages in Linux. I checked the log level in Linux and they seem OK. Is there any other log file that contains the messages or is it just that Linux doesn't log great many things? (2 Replies)
