Hello everybody, I have recently updated my kernel building a 2.6.15 one from debian sources, and I ran into troubles. First problem I had was that battery was not anymore detected (/proc/acpi/battery was empty). I googled around and I found a solution adding "ec_burst=1" to boot parameters. The second one is that my laptop doesn't poweroff: the shutdown process seems to be completed, and the screen goes off, but the power led stays on, and I have to manually press power button for several seconds to shut down it completely. I have all support for acpi built into my kernel:
# Power management options # CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_PM_LEGACY=y CONFIG_PM_DEBUG=y CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND=y CONFIG_PM_STD_PARTITION="/dev/hda5" # # 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=y CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=y CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY=y CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y # CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_IBM is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT=y CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE="/opt/acpi/dsdt.hex" CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0 CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y # CONFIG_ACPI_CONTAINER is not set and this are my boot parameters: # kopt=root=/dev/hda2 ro console=tty0 no_timer_check noapic nolapic i8042.nomux noa pictimer acpi_os_name="Microsoft Windows XP" disable_timer_pin_1 ec_burst=1 Any help will be appreciated.
