I've been looking round on the web for the solution to this, and found patches for ignoring ff buttons and correcting the dsdt, but no go. And Compaq of course gives me the old "Linux is not supported" yadi-yadi-yada. I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for howto debug this? And to be honest, I'm not even sure this is a ACPI problem, but everything else seems to be ACPI controlled. I've seen others complaining about exactly the same problem on the Presario900 list (pretty much the same computer). On another note: there's a Presario model with almost the same config, but with everything working. Anyone know if I can use the Presario BIOS? Config: linux-2.6.7+dsdt-initrd-patch+ignore-ff-button-patch. PS. As I'm not getting anything out of the box as it hangs, I'm not attaching any files. If someone wants this, I'll post them. DS. /Chris First and last Compaq ever.
