The latest more or less stable compiler would be gcc 3.2.3 (imho). As compiling with other 3-versions is really slow, there's not much sense in switching to something earlier than those. As 3.2.3 and 3.3.1 afaik have more or less the same problems.. why not stay at 3.3.1? :) waking up with too less coffee to stay awake is bad ;) Hmm... why does acpi work for my acer tm 632xv with 2.4.21-0.13mdk but fails with kernel-2.4.21.3mdk-1-1mdk?
