I have 2 systems running 2.4.21-ac4. 

1st
ACPI: RSDP (v000 ASUS                       ) @ 0x000f7f00
ACPI: RSDT (v001 ASUS   P2B      22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd000
ACPI: FADT (v001 ASUS   P2B      22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd080
ACPI: BOOT (v001 ASUS   P2B      22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd040
ACPI: DSDT (v001   ASUS P2B      00000.04096) @ 0x00000000
ACPI: BIOS passes blacklist
ACPI: Subsystem revision 20030522

and 2nd
ACPI: RSDP (v000 ASUS                       ) @ 0x000f7980
ACPI: RSDT (v001 ASUS   P2-99    22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd000
ACPI: FADT (v001 ASUS   P2-99    22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd080
ACPI: BOOT (v001 ASUS   P2-99    22616.11825) @ 0x07ffd040
ACPI: DSDT (v001   ASUS P2-99    00000.04096) @ 0x00000000
ACPI: BIOS passes blacklist

both of them show randomly at boot (not every boot), 2 or 3 times, the
following message
ACPI-0284: *** Error: No installed handler for fixed event [00000000]
The message is not always in the same position, it's random.

I searched for it on google and come up with 2 matches; however in those
cases the kernel locked up, while in my case all seems normal.

So, should I worry about them?

Thanks.
