[tlinux-users:07669] ACPI on Satellite L20-121, desperate...

Hi,

I'm desperate on getting my new Toshiba Satellite L20-121 to fully work 
under linux. Tried all main distros: Knoppix, FC4, Ubuntu, Suse 10.0. I 
have to boot with "acpi=off" or I have no ethernet and a sluggish, jerky 
cursor on the screen.

The main problems are: no FN+FX keys work, no battery status control, no 
system poweroff (have to switch off manually).

I recently upgraded BIOS to 1.4. No progress.

I'm a teacher and I must have linux on this laptop to demonstrate the 
system to my students using a projector. I can send signal to the 
projector, by my tft stays black then.

Please kindly help.
