Has anyone else had a problem with the 2.4.21 patch as described below? I'm using 2.4.20...This email was originally sent to me in response to the HOWTO I've written. I'm working on getting a newer version up at the LDP, it's just going through the review process right now. I'll include the information below if it is actually relevant. ----- Forwarded message from Christoph Terhechte <[email protected]> ----- Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2003 16:30:45 +0200 (CEST) From: "Christoph Terhechte" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: ACPI Howto To: <[email protected]> X-Mailer: SquirrelMail (version 1.2.8) > On Thu, Jun 26, 2003 at 12:21:53PM +0200, Christoph Terhechte wrote: >> However, this does not seem to work anymore with kernel 2.4.21 and the >> current patch.

The patch was acpi-20030619-2.4.21.diff, applied to a vanilla 2.4.21 kernel. The settings were not "wrong", but "make-kpkg kernel_image" (or "make-kpkg configure") overwrote .config, replacing it with an almost identical version, except that most of the CONFIG_ACPI lines are missing from the new file. The only one that remained was CONFIG_ACPI=y. This did not happen with the same final 2.4.21 vanilla kernel and patch acpi-20030523-2.4.21-rc3.diff.gz. The new version from June 19th differs a lot from the May 23rd version, though.
