Subject: Recent ACPI patch

I noticed that the big update patch for ACPI was a part of 2.4.3-ac11 (Can
remember). Now its not a part of 2.4.3-ac12. Has it been removed? I have
turned on experimental settings when running make xconfig.

Alan noted the update did not build, so it was removed.

I build fine here. IIRC one hunk of the patch was rejected.

It was the first ACPI kernel for my Asus A7V that did power off the
machine.

BTW, a quick question, can I use ACPI instead of APM now on my SMP
2xPIII ASUS P3D to do some basic power saving stuff, and even a proper
shutdown ???
What version is OK ???

Regards,

Mircea C.

No.

I tried with everything in ACPI selected in the general setup config.
Broke. Tried it with only ACPI enabled and no options selected. Broke.

ac12 and on don't have it. I will try it against and report where it
broke.
