Hi,
After installing Gentoo on my Sony Vaio, I get the following...
Code:

Anyone have any good ideas?

Disable ACPI?

Do you really need ACPI?

Anyway from what I understand the ACPI implementation is "perfect" at least with respect to the specs...

And it seems many motherboard are not really spec compliant!

At least that's what I've heard....

Bye,

Does your M/B support acpi?
When I compiled the kernel, I builted in the kernel support for pci and acpi without any problem.

With acpi I was able to suhtdown+poweroff the computer. Before I installed it, the system would halt but not poweroff

Anyway my newer system works perfect with acpi (+pci).

My older Dual Pentium II 233, needs acpi to shutdown itself... Because apm isn't supported on SMP.

Anyway, you really should check you motherboard specs...

Yes, I really need ACPI...
I have a Sony Vaio laptop... To see the status of my battery, I'm dependant on ACPI :-(

What kernel did you use?

Anyway try downloading your own vanilla 2.4.21 kernel then patching the latest ACPI for 2.4.21 on manually...

Also you might to try change this option in the BIOS:
"PnP OS Installed"

Just enable it and disabled it... see if it changes anything... I usually have it disabled.

I'll check the Bios setting and I was thinking about installing the ACPI-sources....
I currently use the Gentoo-Sources (21 I think)
Thnx
:)

I would highly recommend manually patching a vanilla kernel yourself...

Gentoo's kernels tends to lag behind the newest releases... And if you have a problem with ACPI, you might best try the newest release available:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/acpi/acpi-20030619-2.4.21.diff.gz?download

Then patch that onto a vanilla kernel!

Code:

cd /usr/src/linux
patch -p1 < /pathtopatch/acpi.patch

Does a change in the ACPI and APIC BIOS functions has an impact on the kernel?
