Re: kacpid respawning under linux-2.4.20 on Toshiba Satellite 5105

A follow-up to my last post:

I traced my problem to this code in drivers/acpi/osl.c in 
acpi_os_derive_pci_id():

        /* any nicer way to get bus number of bridge ? */
        status = acpi_os_read_pci_configuration(pci_id, 0x0e, &tu8, 8);
       if (ACPI_SUCCESS(status) && (tu8 & 0x7f) == 1) {
                status = acpi_os_read_pci_configuration(pci_id,0x19, 
&tu8, 8);
                if (ACPI_SUCCESS(status))
                        pci_id->bus = tu8;

If I replace the assignment to pci_id->bus with a printk, the zombie 
kacpidpc
processes go away.  The value shown for tu8 is 2.  pci_id->device is 
0x1e and
pci_id->function is 0 at this point.

I don't know if it's related, but I also see the following messages 
earlier
via dmesg:
