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!
