Hi Marcelo,

My plan is to start feeding you bits of ACPI changes after 2.4.20 is 
released. However, for 2.4.20, I'd like to make sure the really old code 
in 2.4.20 doesn't bite any casual kernel builders.

Please apply,

Thanks -- Andy

Could you please expand "bite" ?

I see no reason for disabling ACPI in 2.4.19.

There are no changes from 2.4.19, so I guess right thing is to leave
it there. People would loose their configs this way, etc.

Yeah you're right. Sorry, bad idea. Never mind.
