------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-24 15:36 ------- Dear Sir, the problem still remain. My starting situation is the following: 1) Laptop Sony Vaio PCG-FX501 2) Mandrake 9.1 RC1 3) lilo.conf contain the line "apci=on apm=off pci=biosirq". This is the situation when I sent my first description of the bug 2023 on qa.mandrakesoft.com After this I installed the latest kernel 2.4.21pre4-10mdk compiled and installed from scratch (all ACPI options are enabled not as external modules, and APM has been disabled). The situation changed from the first install of the MDK91RC1: - now the battery status is correctly displayed on KDE31 - the cooling fan still ON for all the time (problem still to be solved) - the shutdown command is not shuttin down the laptop power at the end of the shutdown procedure - the directory /proc/acpi/fan is empty (all others ACPI directories display correct informations and ACPI status). I suggest also to include the installation of the acpid daemon during MDK install instead to install it manually after. Today I checked to have the last version of acpi packages: - acpi-0.6-2mdk - acpid-1.0.1-3mdk The situation remain to be solved. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: With the standard kernel the ACPI is not working on my SonyVaio PCG-FX501 laptop. My lilo.conf contain the option "apci=on apm=off pci=biosirq". I tried also with only the standard option "acpi=on" but with the same results. The problems are: The fan cooler is always on, no battery status on KDE 3.1 Thanks.
