The BIOS interface on this machine is low on options - It's an Anaheim e-machines MoBo, which some on this list may recognise as belonging to the last century. I have seen it suggested that the BIOS on this computer is not fully ACPI compliant, however it seems to be running quite happily like this. I suspect it may be doing it in software from my brief reading of the dmesg. I _can_ disable ACPI in the BIOS (PHoenix IIRC). Incidentally it only takes matched pairs of PC100 SDRAM, so I'm on the lookout for two 256M slices, which are proving not so easy to get hold of anymore. Just thought I'd mention it. I'm running on 128M right now, which is painfully slow. :( At some point in the fairly near future, hopefully, I'll be able to splash out on something made this century. ;) >> Anyway, I'm running 2.6.21 for now & I'll check out 2.6.23 as soon as >> I have the rest of my hardware running happily on the old kernel. > > So our 2.6.21-RT package works fine on this same machine? It would seem that way: From dmesg: pnp: PnP ACPI init pnp: PnP ACPI: found 13 devices PnPBIOS: Disabled by ACPI PNP No errors reported. cheers, tim _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
