I just got a Vaio FXA47 notebook and am having two seperate problems. I am 
running Gentoo with a Linux 2.4.19 kernel (from kernel.org -- not patched) 
and acpid 1.0.1
The first is I cannot suspend the system. The /proc/acpi/sleep file contains 
"S0 S3 S4 S5" but using 0, 4, or 5 powers off the system. 3 seems to suspend 
it, but then it cannot be resumed. Is there a working suspend?
The /proc/acpi/battery/ directory is empty. There is a battery in the system, 
but it doesn't show up in that directory. What's wrong?

2.4.19 is no good idea for a notebook that requires ACPI! The ACPI part of the 
kernel is totally out of date. There are a lot of bug fixes in the newer 
patches, that I really need to get my Vaio running at all.
There's currently no patch against 2.4.19. The current release will be put 
into 2.4.20. At the moment the best is to use a 2.4.18 and fetch the newest 
patch from http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi/.

Most likely you will NOT get a working suspend with that combination. There 
are a lot of problems with suspend. The major work is currently done in 2.5.
But you will be able to use more features of ACPI with the patch. E.g. I can 
throttle my CPU via /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling. It's a lot of fun 
having a 1GHz notebook running at the speed of an old 386 ;-)

I am still having problems. I got Linux 2.4.18. I applied the latest acpi 
patch. There are now many problems. First, the swsusp won't apply on top of 
the acpi patch. I have tried to compile the kernel but the ACPI does not 
work. There are a number of AE_NO_MEMORY errors and the /proc/acpi directory 
is never created. I though it was gcc-3.1, so I downgraded to gcc-2.96.3, but 
that made no difference. Here is the dmesg output:

Well, why is the error at tbget.c line 133 happening?
Why is it trying to map something of length 0?

The other error messages are just the fallout of that problem.

I have no idea why it is trying to map something of length 0. I have fooled 
around the with the PCI configuration (using direct and BIOS access) and 
changed the few settings in the BIOS (32-bit disk access, PnP OS).  That's 
all there is in the bios. That memory range is clearly inside the region 
marked as ACPI data. I've been trying to get this system working and having a 
very hard time. I install Gentoo with a 2.4.18 kernel and ACPI worked. I then 
started to prepare my LinuxFromScratch distro. I am using the some kernel 
version and acpi-diff file that I used to make the kernel for Gentoo, but 
once I switched, ACPI didn't work. They came from the same sources. The GCC 
version has changed (3.1), but I tested with an old one (2.96.3) with no 
change. In either case I recompiled the kernel several times, usually with a 
make dist-clean first. Could there be some assembler or linker that changed 
from Gentoo to LFS that's breaking ACPI? That seems unlikely, right?

Haha! It works! Thanks. I upgraded to the 2.4.19 kernel once the patches 
became available and it works perfectly! Thanks!

Try to decrease this kernel argument.  Something like mem=254M should
be OK.

Anyway, you don't need to pass a mem argument at all, but if you use
grub, this boot loader can add it  automagically, but sometimes grub
is wrong.
