You probably want to work from a vanilla kernel with the patch from http://acpi.sourceforge.net NOT the debian-patched kernel. Do you even know that your system supports ACPI? (i.e. have you used it before instead of APM?) I've found the acpi-support mailing list to be very helpful in trouble shooting problems. http://acpi.sourceforge.net/mailinglists.html Note that you want the acpi-support list, not the development list. > ... but acpi is not working.
