The problem is with kernel > 2.6.22. There were a modification in drivers/acpi/ec.c that makes all kernel > 2.6.22 useless with toshiba P100 notebooks. Ubuntu 7.10 backported patches from 2.6.23 in their 2.6.22 kernel. From now, one of the solution modify kernel sources. I just wrote to the main kernel developer who did the modification in drivers/acpi/ec.c that make problem exist. I just hope there will be a solution for kernel 2.6.24, because the problem is still there in 2.6.24 rc2. Currently, i can't help ubuntu users to create some deb packages because i don't use ubuntu. I would say that compiling the sources with the proposed modification and compiling restricted drivers works, but this is not for novices.
