But what is rally anoying is the prplemwith the missig keyoard and mouse events. See what i mean? Suppose you try to log in or type the password of your mailaccount! Last time I had to try 5 times ... X-| This did not happen with linux-2.6.11.11 and the acpi_sbs-20050120 package from Rich Townsend (acpi-ec-2.6.10.diff, modules i2c-acpi-ec and acpi-sbs). And it is interesting, that it does not happen when the battery is missing. The question is: Is it a problem with the DSDT or with the kernel code? Is there any patch available that I can try. Or is there a acpi_sbs version that compiles with recent kernel versions? It is not very effective to hit each key twice...
