Why didn't you try a more recent kernel+acpi-patch?
I'm now using 2.4.20-rc1 with the recent acpi-patch and ererything works fine.
(I first installed the Suse-kernel-sources and then copied the .config-file
into the new 2.4.20-rc1-tree - make menuconfig - make bzimage and so on.)
I had no major problems with this.

Did you configure the kernel yourself? The Suse Kernel has the option "prompt
for development options" (One of the first options when you do make menuconfig
or make xconfig - Unfortunately I do not know the exact name any more) enabled.
This allows you to select drivers/modules marked as "(EXPERIMENTAL)", eg.
FireWire, Bluetooth, I thonk WLan too, and so on.

If you need some help updating the kernel, please feel free and mail me
directly.
