Hello, I do not know if I am an experienced user, but I found the following:
I have this in my dmesg and not in yours: ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery present) ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF] ACPI: Lid Switch [LID] ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2) ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (21 C) ACPI: AC Adapter [ACAD] (on-line) This makes me think that you do not have the necessary modules loaded. Normally you need the following modules: ac battery button fan processor thermal Normally I use modconf package to install kernel modules. Install modconf, then run it as root, the modules are located in the kernel/drivers/acpi section. Do it quick or you will kill your cpu... Hope it helps, J.
