Testing And Unstable • [Testing - Trixie] Displays different messages at boot time

Vendor ACPI implementations are notoriously buggy and always have been. Other operating systems (i.e. Windoze) usually either have vendor-supplied workarounds in the driver or just don't expose verbose boot messages to the user to begin with... Figure out how to boot one of those in a sufficiently verbose / developer mode and you'll almost certainly see those "errors" there as well.
I think that describes it correctly. In my case, noticing the same thing, much of it was more detail about Bluetooth issues. I never bothered trying to get my Bluetooth working on any distribution, since I have no need for it. The "failure" doesn't slow down boot, so why worry about it? When others noticed more messages, I did, too, in blue text, and booting takes the same period of time. As far as I see it, or at least as I take it, it's as if the message level has been made more verbose, and such is life. We can hide everything like a splash screen in other distributions, or adjust verbosity, or "fix" an issue that might be there, or simply not worry about what doesn't matter.

I didn't even bother searching or starting a thread. I was concerned at first, but then realized what the messages were, and that boot speed wasn't affected, and functionality wasn't affected. It's no big deal.
