Re: [BUG 2.6.5-rc2-bk5 and 2.6.5-rc2-mm3] ACPI seems to be broken

yes, you're blessed with a system with non-identity SCI over-ride;-)

and it gets AE_NOT_ACQUIRED as expected and goes downhill from there...

if you can apply the patch and try IOAPIC mode again, that would be
great.

ps

--------
not sure what is the matter with "noapic" mode.  This might be a
different problem.  may need to back out the latest ACPICA to see if the
"Handle is NULL" thingie is new.
