...and for me - thanks for the hint, I've been running 2.6.11 now for a
few days without any problems.

I bet you have CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG enabled. Disable it or try to put
#define ACPI_ENABLE_OBJECT_CACHE 1
at the end of include/acpi/acpi.h (before the last #endif)
This fixed it for me (and some others).
There is also a patch for a "CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG_LITE" from Thomas
Renninger on the acpi-devel list, which leaves some of the debugging in,
but disables the worst offenders IIUC.

Hope that helps,

 Stefan

By trying different kernel versions, I traced down the problem to the
changes introduced between linux-2.6.11-rc2-bk9 and
linux-2.6.11-rc2-bk10, and, more specifically, to the ACPI changes
within that patch. (Therefore the Cc: to Len Brown, who wrote or

Len, do you have any idea which of the ACPI changes could have caused
the described key bouncing problems on my ASUS M2400N laptop, or how I
could debug this?

Yours,
Jan

bouncing keys and skipping sound with 2.6.11

2005-03-02 Thread Jan Niehusmann
Hello,

the problem with bouncing keys I reported with 2.6.11-rc5 is still
present in 2.6.11. Additionally, I noticed that audio has short outages
every few seconds, which sound like latency problems would do.

And I saw with 'top' that often, when the sound skips, the kacpid process
shows up using a big percentage of CPU time. (Perhaps it's always the kacpid
waking up, but 'top' is just to slow to show it accurately)

Have there been changes between 2.6.10 and 2.6.11-rc5 which could cause
these problems, perhaps together with ACPI bugs on the ASUS M2400N or
anything like that? I'd be happy helping to debug this, if anybody could
give me a hint where to start.

Yours,
Jan
