Problems with ACPI - Compaq Presario 700, 2.4.25
Hello folks,
I have recently acquired a Compaq Presario 700, and tried to install
the Sarge Beta netinstall CD. Everything seems to have worked ok,
except that the ACPI module does not seem to be working.
The ACPI seems to kick in and suddenly dies while the kernel is
loading, complaining about a known bug. I'm not very proficient in
solving kernel-related problems, so I googled a little and found
http://www.lsp.ups-tlse.fr/Chafai/presario.html
and
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/ACPI-HOWTO/index.html
but both don't shed any light on my problem, they seem to assume that
kernel ACPI support works out of the box for the 2.4.25 kernel that I
am using.
I'm adding output from uname and dmesg| grep ACPI. I tried using
different parts of the error messages in my searchs but came up with
nothing, so I home someone here could point me in the right
direction...
# dmesg | grep ACPI
