I've got a new thinkpad a31 ... it supports acpi, but i didn't find anywhere in the
bios to specify that type of standard or anything. as for apm, i have a module
compiled, just in case i *do* need some power management.
> And you need to emerge acpid to get the kernel patch.
well, acpid just provides the userspace tool i believe. i downloaded a patch from
acpi.sf.net and patched a vanilla-sources tree myself (because the acpi-sources kernel
was doing the same thing this one was about to do). i emerged and compiled
vanilla-sources with 'acpi' in my $USE and and all power-management kernel options
selected appropriately.
What's interesting:
ThinkBox linux # cat /proc/cpuinfo
... <snip> ...
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca
cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm
Note the 'acpi' output in flags. yet still, i've never gotten anything but:
* ACPI support not compiled into the kernel
this has occurrs with prepatched kernels as well as user-patched vanilla kernels. i
have:
# ACPI Support
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
in .config ... i don't see what's wrong :-)
..but ultimately, the dmesg is:

Any ideas and/or suggestions greatly welcome. I'll continue searching in the mean
while. Thank you,
