Re: ACPI initialization failure with v2.6.21-rc4

Do you recall which acpi enabled kernel works for you?
If never, I guess your system don't support ACPI .
If yes, this should be resolved. Please enter a acpi bug into
bugzilla.kernel.org with sufficient info : dmesg,lspci -vvx,
/proc/ioports, acpidump output... w/ acpi=off.
