ACPI lockup on boot in 2.4.0

[Robert Lowery]

Hi,   I have a Sony VAIO C1XE (Picturebook) that is giving me some grief with 2.4.0.   I compiled it with ACPI compiled as a module and APM not compiled in at all, but on booting I get the following. ACPI: System description tables found ACPI: System description tables loaded   and then the system locks up..   I will try compiling up a kernel without ACPI support and see where I get, but any help in the meantime would be appreciated.  I am happy to provide any additional information that might be required   -Robert
