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 :-)
