As I understand it, the issue is that the module isn't loaded because it believes it can't handle this hardware but it can; this means that tables of supported devices need to be updated in the kernel, hence I'm reassigning to the "linux" package as this is not an acpid issue.
Please confirm whether this is still an issue in Ubuntu 8.10, thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: acpid => linux -- CPU fan not working properly: kernel/drivers/char/i8k.ko not autoloaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160291 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
