------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-05-08 01:07 ------- Alexey's 2nd patch worked until I tried to suspend (using Software Suspend 2): then it hung. Alexey's 3rd patch applies to my 2.6.16.11 kernel with one change (ec->burst to ec->intr) but then causes strange problems in places which seem to have little to do with ACPI: maybe memory corruption? I don't know why these patches fail, but you should check you don't call a function which can sleep from an invalid context (e.g. from an interrupt handler). This is a no-no according to Linux Device Driver Development and other kernel documentation. This is why my patch takes a safety-first approach and spawns new threads from the normal kacpid thread only. This may take a little longer (it is a 2-stage dispatch process) but at least I can be pretty certain that it does not sleep in an interrupt. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
