I upgraded to kernel-2.4.19-24 (this time from MandrakeClub) and turned on all ACPI settings but DEBUG.
I hoped I could suspend or hibernate my laptop and mostly, spend more time working on battery (only like 30 minutes while in XP using ACPI more than 90 minutes). For some reason that I have no idea, the laptop power management applet doesn't work and it gives the message: "Your computer seems to have a partial ACPI installation. Probably ACPI was enabled, but some of the sub-options were not enabled - you need to enable at least 'AC Adaptor' and 'Control Method Battery' and rebuild your kernel" However, as I already said, I enabled about every ACPI parameter before compiling. The relevant output of my .config is: linux> cat .config | grep -i ACPI # CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI is not set # ACPI Support CONFIG_ACPI=y # CONFIG_ACPI_HT_ONLY is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA=y # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set Should I try recompiling setting the options as modules? Is something that I am missing? (which I am sure it is but I don't know what) I don't care about recompiling the kernel. It has become my personal hobby :-) -- __ / \\ @ __ __ @ Adolfo Bello <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> / // // /\ / \\ // \ // Bello Ingenieria S.A, ICQ: 65910258 / \\ // / \\ / // // / // cel: +58 416 609-6213 /___// // / <_/ \__\\ //__/ // fax: +58 212 952-6797 www.bisapi.com // pager: www.tun-tun.com (# 609-6213)
