I only want to stress out that it works in unpredictable ways, for example:

^^^^^^^^
at this moment the whole shell freezes (the machine itself stays responsive), cannot
be killed and in log the following lines begin to appear in /var/log/messages (and
on console):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/buki#tail /var/log/messages | grep aac
Oct 2 13:50:15 ta-p /kernel: aac0: COMMAND 0xc30089a4 TIMEOUT AFTER 157 SECONDS
Oct 2 13:50:35 ta-p /kernel: aac0: COMMAND 0xc30089a4 TIMEOUT AFTER 177 SECONDS
Oct 2 13:50:55 ta-p /kernel: aac0: COMMAND 0xc30089a4 TIMEOUT AFTER 197 SECONDS
Oct 2 13:51:15 ta-p /kernel: aac0: COMMAND 0xc30089a4 TIMEOUT AFTER 217 SECONDS
it would seem the only difference between those two kernels is existence of the 'aacp'
device in latter case.
BTW, why does dmesg say the controller has the optional battery when it does not?
