People, I installed Red Hat 7.3 on my Compaq Evo. It recognized my peripherals. The problem is to set up the ACPI.
I donīt know exactly what are the step that I have to do to make ACPI works. My kernel is 2.4.19. I patched my kernel with the ACPI patch and recompiled it the ACPI options. After that I make bzImage, modules, modules_install and install. That worked fine. Then I downloaded acpid RPM with the acpi daemon and installed it. When I tried to start it, calling acpid, the message above was thrown: acpid daemon: acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event The directory /proc/acpi doesn't exist. Some places tell about the directory /proc/sys/acpi it doesn't exist too. I did look at the Linux ACPI Howto (<www.columbia.edu/~ariel/acpi/>) and from there I learned that there are supposed to be at least 4 more executables whose names begin with acpi, but which don't exist. What I did wrong ?? What is missing ? I appreciate your help.
