hello,

I've never posted to this type of message board before so I hope I'm not out
of order. I found my way here while trying to solve a shutdown problem in a
new linux install (Arch). I've noticed for some time that I have the same
lines as above in my dmesg as well as: 

ACPI BIOS Bug: Warning: Optional FADT field Pm2CintrolBlock has no address
or length: 0x0000000000000000/0x1 (20121018/tbfadt-589)

I have no idea whether this is related to my shutdown problem or not and
what I was hoping is if someone would advise me how to find help for my
problem. I have tried all the normal routes for my distro (forum and irc)
repeatedly, and googled my weeping eyes out - but to no avail.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jake
