Hi Roberto The 2.4.22 kernel does have ACPI built-in, and the modules are definitely there:
$ ls /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-686/kernel/drivers/acpi/ ac.o battery.o fan.o thermal.o asus_acpi.o button.o processor.o toshiba_acpi.o
I just doesn´t seem to be starting during kernel boot-up with the Debian kernel. Although, as I mentioned, it does work correctly with a standard ftp.kernel.org kernel. Regards Damien
Sorry. I misread your original post. I am not that well versed in the Debian kernel images, as I always roll my own from a kernel-source package.
Regards,
