I'm using a 2.4.22 kernel. The PC must power off once a day and then restarts some hours after=20 using the RTC Power On bios feature. Problem: if RTC Power On is up, PC never stops (it reboots immediately=20 after the power off call). If I turn off RTC power on feature, the PC=20 stops and power is off. Looking at dmesg, I see ACPI: Interpreter disabled. So I tried to set acpi=3Dforce on kernel's command line: curiously, the=20 kernel loads a asus_acpi module. Problem: if asus_acpi is loaded, and RTC Power On is up, the PC never=20 stops. If a remove the module, that's OK: the PC stops and power is off. Seeems to be OK, no ? The PC uses 4 serial ports: if I set acpi=3Dforce, I can't use serial por= t=20 3 and 4 anymore, even using setserial call. Is there something I can do to track the problem ?
