Hi,
i discovered that the problem is that the file /proc/acpi/info is not
present because is deprecated by
/sys/module/acpi/parameters/acpica_version.
To create /proc/acpi/info is needed to set CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS (that is
deprecated) kernel config.
This is the code interested in libacpi.c:
193 if (!(acpi = fopen ("/proc/acpi/info", "r")))
194 {
195 #ifdef DEBUG
196 printf("DBG:no acpi: /proc/acpi/info not found!\n");
197 #endif
198 return 1;
199 }
200
201 /* yep, all good */
202 fclose (acpi);
In attachment there is a patch to resolve this problem without set
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS.
Ciao,
IsMaEl
