I'm proud to announce to all of you that kernel 2.4.20 patched with
acpi-20021205-2.4.20.diff.gz works fine in my laptop, now. The battery status
reflects the real status, as the AC Adapter status, thermal and processor :)
Thanks a lot for your great work!!!
Now, my next goal is to write a kernel module to make the launchkeys work... ^_^
Thanks again!
