Samsung P35

Hi there,

hopefully this is the right list to discuss my problem.

since two weeks I am owner of a Samsung P35 XVM 1600. I succeeded to 
install debian sarge with kernel 2.6.8 only by providing nolacpi as 
kernel parameter. I thought this would switch off acpi but I got several 
ACPI messages on boot time like:

---snip---

and so on. Everything looks quite well. So what does this parameter 
nolapic?

My problem:
Suspend does not work. Neither Fn + Sleep Key nor echo mem|disk > 
/sys/.../state

mem does something - display is switching to text mode but returns 
immediately.

As I read about problem with suspend-to-* on P30, I thought its a good 
idea to edit the dsdt to correct a call for suspend.

So in a second step I built my own kernel (kernel-source-2.6.8 from 
debian distrib) with initrd patch to load my own dsdt. I dumped the dsdt 
corrected all warnings an errors and cat it to the end of my initrd.

Here is the result:

the last few messages occur when I try to change display brightness. The 
fan isn't working any more - this is maybe because the kernel isn't able 
to access the corresponding acpi funcion any more.

I wasn't able to get the beginning of the dmesg buffer because it was 
alredy rolled out.

Can anyone help me interpret this? What the hell went wron? The built in 
dsdt is damaged but it succeeds to handle a lot of acpi events. My own 
one compiled without any warning or error seems to be badly damaged, 
nearly each call fails on several errors.

I now got a vanilla kernel 2.6.9 and start compiling but there went 
something wrong with DRM so this is still in progress (btw. I could not 
find any cramfs patch for 2.6.9 any more, is this path obsolete for 2.6? 
and even more, debian is using a bunch of patches, which of them are 
really necessary, any idea?)

Where do I need to start at?

Thanks for any hints,
Oliver
