kernel-2.4.27 acpi not being found
I installed acpid on my laptop with the debian kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686
and a popup states that the kernel does not have acpi support and needs
to be recompiled. It's true that 'cat /proc' does not show any acpi
subdirectory, but:
root :~# modprobe acpi
modprobe: Can't locate module acpi
paul :~$ grep -i acpi /boot/config-2.4.27-2-686
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI=m
# ACPI Support
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_MMCONFIG=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_ACPI_OFF=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=m
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=m
CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS=m
CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA=m
# CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set
How do I interpret this information? Is there something else I need to
do to activate acpi in this stock debian kernel?
Do I have to recompile?
Paul
