acpi on medion laptop

acpi on medion laptop

[nicolas.olivero-39ZsbGIQGT5GWvitb5QawA]

Hello,
I have some problems to make work acpi on my new laptop.
I have just install mandrake9.2.
In order to have acpi, i compile my own kernel 2.4.22 with the last
patch acpi.
 
extraxt of my .config :
#
# ACPI Support
#
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_RELAXED_AML is not set
 
After booting on my new kernel, i notice that my fan works less often
than before and as i can't see the temperature i'm anxious for my laptop....
 
The good thing is that now i can see the level of my battery .
 
[root@localhost han]# acpi -V
     Battery 1: charging, 88%, 00:50:20 until charged
No support for device type: thermal
  AC Adapter 1: on-line
 
[root@localhost han]# acpid
acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy
 
[root@localhost han]# modprobe thermal
modprobe: Can't locate module thermal
 
 
But i can't see the temperature of my computer...
How can i make this work fine?
 
Here is my dmesg log
 
Thanks for any help.

Hello!

I have ASUS M3700N laptop. And I have experienced problems like you 
yours. The cure is one of the following:
(1) Use last 2.4.23 kernel and make sure, that you have applied last 
acpi patch (or it contains it inside).
(2) Use last 2.6.0 kernel. Everything is working fine now.

You can also try to modify your DSDT. Take a look to acpi.sf.net. Read 
all sections. Try advices. I have spent lots of time before set up my 
laptop :)
