After installing Kali linux on my omen i noticed some acpi errors on the boot screen. Which won't let me boot into linux .

If i do acpi=off it boots and runs properly but then i am unable to power off or restart. I have to hard press power button to turn off my laptop. Any suggestions how to get rid of these acpi errors?

I'm sorry, but we here are not equipped to provide detailed Linux support.

HP only warranties their PCs for usage with the OS that comes preinstalled. IF you replace that with Linux, or add a Linux OS, then you assume full responsibility for maintaining that -- as HP provides Linux assistance only on Redhat and then only to commercial customers.

The primary "challenge" to using Linux on any HP PC is the availability of Linux drivers. Any hardware that does not work will then range from simple (if there are Linux drivers available) to impossible (if there are NO Linux drivers available) to fix.

Since HP does not provide Linux drivers, your best bet for Linux support is to contact the support forum for the Linux distro you are using.
