I can't seem to find what Acer you are using?! My Acer Aspire 5024WLMi should be older, with a Turion ML-34, but its BIOS is fine. Remember that either a PSB or _PSS object is required for Windows 2000 to work!
(Offtopic: I'm actually the writer of the Linux-PHC (Processor Hardware Control) phc-k8 driver and I think I can adapt the phc-k8 driver somewhere in the future to "guess" a powerstate table, without any ACPI usage whatsoever. I may need your help for testing it when it's ready... Maybe (then) I'll even succeed in getting it merged into the vanilla Linux kernel.) -- Hardy x64 on AMD Turion not CPU scaling properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231534 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
