Will this be true for all > hardware configurations 2.4.21? i cannot second that, at least concerning kernel configuration. when i disable the APIC-stuff i can still select ACPI in my configuration. also drivers/acpi/Config.in does not seem to depend on settings for APIC except for CPU enumeration (CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC which is enabled automatically by CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC). grepping the kernel sources for UP_APIC does not seem to alter anything within the ACPI codebase. though CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC automatically enables CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC which alters ACPIs behaviour (compilation) quite a bit. this is 2.4.21 + acpi20030619 (+ swsusp-1.0pre14 + laptopmode + bootsplash + dsdtinitrd). though i am neither a kernel developer nor an acpi developer and i could be damn wrong. :) cheers, sebastian --=20 ::: sebastian henschel ::: kodeaffe ::: lynx -source http://www.kodeaffe.de/shensche.pub | gpg --import --X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/AT+ireHfL3pi+bQRAvDiAJ9lq0yGLgTAgvWLwfo9RA1T2WukfACgjZto BxvQDUGRFbkJT9DcBL8Uqo0= =5UuC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT-- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
