Thanks for the answer.  Apologies for not searching the archives, I've found 
the SF interface doesn't easily allow for that...

About how far behind is the actual kernel vs the patches here?  For instance, 
if 2.4.26-pre5 with today's ACPI patch functions properly for me, would it be 
safe to say that I would not need a patch with 2.4.27?
