acpi doesn't work. If I remove acpi=off OR I put acpi = on on lilo.conf the 
computer just after booting. Loading linux. BeOS ....




I've tried to recompile the kernel but it doesn't work.


The path should be /proc/acpi, but it is only /proc.


The directories created in /proc, that is "ac_adapter", "battery", "button", and 
so on are empty.




Sugestion: use acpi drivers from sf.net/projects/acpi - they work just fine.




The only way of use acpi in my laptop is getting the original kernel source, the 
apply the acpi patch in at http://sf.net/projects/acpi.


Because of that I've to spend much time & I loose supermount from Mandrake.




The procedure above works on every laptops whose persons I've helped to install 
linux (laptops with acpi)




Good luck!
