Acer Ferrari 4005 WLMi, BIOS 3A19, running Edgy.
With standard kernel boot options (command line is root=UUID=e9c019e5
-d78a-4cc0-8c4a-129eadbe0e3b ro quiet splash), g-p-m applet never
displays. Battery Charge Monitor applet always shows AC power, even
with no AC connected. However, CPU frequency is scaled down to 800MHz
when I unplug the AC. Some pertinent command line output while on AC:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ acpi -V
Thermal 1: ok, 77.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line
And while on battery:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ acpi -V
Thermal 1: ok, 68.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: off-line
And while switching between the two:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lshal -m
Start monitoring devicelist:
-------------------------------------------------
acpi_ACAD property ac_adapter.present = false
acpi_ACAD property ac_adapter.present = true
acpi_ACAD property ac_adapter.present = false
acpi_ACAD property ac_adapter.present = true
Note that with these boot options, my IEEE1394 interface and Broadcom
BCM43xx wireless NIC don't work either. Having looked at the dmesg
output from boot, I've tried booting with the irqpoll and pci=routeirq
options, which seems to allow all these things to work normally.
