Hello,

I downloaded the last kernel 2.6.0-test8 and the last ACPI patched for 
it. I successfully installed it and it works perfectly, just I get the 
same "osl / AE_TIME" error I get on kernel 2.4.21, where it was called 
"osl-8888" and not "osl-8892" (I attached the dmesg to see the exact 
error message). More, there's another error: "utmisc-0745" that IIRC 
I've never had on kernel 2.4.21.

The first error causes some big problems on kernel 2.4.21: first of all, 
if you works on battery mode it doesn't occurs, while it starts suddenly 
after you plug the AC-adapter in (or you boot with the AC-adapter 
plugged-in). Once it occurs, the keyboard doesn't answer at all for 5min 
and as the error occurs quite every 5/10min, it's a real problem, as I 
need to work with my notebook all the day. On kernel 2.6.0-test8 I've 
always the same problem, but now the keyboard  doesn't answer for 15/30 
seconds, so it's better.

The problem is surely related to "osl.c", but as I not a programmer, I 
can't correct it. Anyway, Í'm here if you need tester.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
