Hi,
I own a Omnibook XT1000 with exactly the same Problem with sound and ACPI.
I solved it like that (and wondered about Your way with building a .deb):
-I patched the original kernel.org source (2.4.19) with the ACPI Patch from
Sourceforge (You need the newest and fitting version...)
-Then a #make menuconfig (I assume that we have nearly the same hardware
configuration... So if You want I can send You my .config)
-After that a #make dep bzImage modules modules_install
-Then a #cp arch/i386/boot/bzimage /boot/vmlinuzNEW
-After that I of course needed to edit my lilo.conf
-Then a #lilo
And after a reboot everything worked :-) Except some acpi functions. But that
isn't my fault. The specifications of the ACPI standard are not strict
enough, so every manufacturer has his "own" ACPI...
A helpful link for You should be Stefan Bellon's page:
