Dear all! 

I submit you this issue with my laptop, a Packard Bell Easynote R1983 W 
(running an updated Kubuntu 7.04, with updated BIOS). Issue not documented 
elsewhere I've looked for. 
Problem: I need to put at boot the option "acpi=force" to kernel (2.6.20-16)  
in order to have atheros wifi card working. But then, this disables my usb 
devices! 

More technical details have been posted on: 
kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3083009.msg68885#msg68885

Some comments made on http://madwifi.org/ticket/1454
"This is an ACPI error. [...] However, the problem in this case looks like a 
badly written DSDT. [...] the problem is the fault of your system vendor."
(I first thought it was a madwifi issue)

Please help, or at least give some hint that allow me to go on (I'm newbie)! 
Thanks in advance. 

Raf
