So what configuration options do you mean? When I debugged a failing 2.6.12, my debug statements were definitely being executed at the point where it was supposed to stop. I did briefly look at the configuration, but didnt see anything. These are standard debian pre-packaged images as well. The ACPI config from zless /proc/config.gz | grep ACPI is CONFIG_X86_64_ACPI_NUMA=y # ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support CONFIG_ACPI=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS=y # CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_SLEEP is not set CONFIG_ACPI_AC=m CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=m CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=m CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY=m CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU=y CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=m CONFIG_ACPI_NUMA=y CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS=m CONFIG_ACPI_IBM=m CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA=m CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0 # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y CONFIG_ACPI_CONTAINER=m CONFIG_X86_POWERNOW_K8_ACPI=y CONFIG_X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO_ACPI=y CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=m # CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_PROC_INTF is not set CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI=m CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI_IBM=m CONFIG_PNPACPI=y CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_ACPI=y It all looks pretty set to me.
