Hi, I have compiled my own kernel, based on the LPIA sources (2.6.24-24.59) of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS available at: http://ports.ubuntu.com/
I also get the following WARNING: [ 34.008772] sysfs: duplicate filename 'acpi' can not be created [ 34.008778] WARNING: at /opt/kernel-devel/linux-2.6.24/debian/build/custom-source-lpiacustom/fs/sysfs/dir.c:424 sysfs_add_one() [ 34.008787] Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.24-24-lpiacustom #1 [ 34.008793] [<c01c2c8f>] sysfs_add_one+0x9f/0xe0 [ 34.008808] [<c01c31c8>] create_dir+0x48/0x90 [ 34.008815] [<c01c3239>] sysfs_create_dir+0x29/0x50 [ 34.008821] [<c020eb6f>] kobject_get+0xf/0x20 [ 34.008829] [<c020f033>] kobject_add+0x93/0x1b0 [ 34.008835] [<c020ef71>] kobject_set_name+0x81/0xb0 [ 34.008842] [<c04fdab4>] kernel_param_sysfs_setup+0x54/0xa0 [ 34.008852] [<c04fdc0d>] param_sysfs_init+0x10d/0x190 [ 34.008859] [<c04ed551>] kernel_init+0x131/0x320 [ 34.008866] [<c010435e>] __switch_to+0x9e/0x150 [ 34.008874] [<c01052c6>] ret_from_fork+0x6/0x20 [ 34.008881] [<c04ed420>] kernel_init+0x0/0x320 [ 34.008887] [<c04ed420>] kernel_init+0x0/0x320 [ 34.008893] [<c0106667>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 [ 34.008899] ======================= [ 34.008905] kobject_add failed for acpi with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.

Could this be a regression?
