What means the boot option acpi=off? Shouldn't it switch off the whole acpi subsystem? I ask this because I had some troubles in the past. I thought I could activate ACPI and APM in the kernel config and then I can either activate ACPI or APM at boot time. If I activate APM and disable ACPI (acpi=off) I have some troubles with the suspend (suspend to ram and suspend to disk). Most of the time the machine hangs on resume and sometimes it also hangs by going to suspend. This NEVER happens if I build a kernel without ACPI! Seen with 2.4.19/20, other Versions not tested. A short statement would be appreciated. Thank you! Greets, Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
