ACPI lockup on boot in 2.4.0
Hi,
I have a Sony VAIO C1XE (Picturebook) that is giving me some grief with 2.4.0.
I compiled it with ACPI compiled as a module and APM not compiled in at all, but on booting I get the following.
ACPI: System description tables found
ACPI: System description tables loaded
and then the system locks up..
I will try compiling up a kernel without ACPI support and see where I get, but any help in the meantime would be appreciated. I am happy to provide any additional information that might be required

I have a Sony Vaio PCG-F350 that behaves the same way. I compiled in ACPI (not a module) and never got further than this. When I enabled APM and disabled ACPI everything started to work.
Kernel 2.4.0
gcc: 2.95.2 (I bieleve).
on Debian Potato

To get a more verbose failure scenario, grab the ACPI debug version from

Thank-you for the pointers.
Looking at the ACPI mailing list, it appears that the ACPI code gets stuck in an infinite loop with many of the VAIO notebooks. So it:s back to APM for now
