Hello all,

Continuing my ongoing saga with this notebook...

I'm now running kernel 2.4.23.0-1mdk with it.

Not much has changed, but there was a little improvement: cpufreq
(p4-clockmod) works:

Nov 23 01:59:26 docmobile kernel: cpufreq: P4/Xeon(TM) CPU On-Demand Clock Modulation available

but speedstep-ich doesn't:

Nov 23 01:58:48 docmobile kernel: cpufreq: Intel(R) SpeedStep(TM) for this chipset not (yet) available.

and my /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info:

processor id:            0
acpi id:                 0
bus mastering control:   no
power management:        yes
throttling control:      no
performance management:  no
limit interface:         no

Anyway, the worst problem I have now is the system hanging whenever I try to switch the video-out (Fn-F5), which didn't happen with an older kernel (2.4.21 from Mandrake 9.1). It appears to generate a kernel oops/panic, but I cannot get to it, since this notebook doesn't have a serial port, and the one usb serial console patch I found was for kernel 2.6.

I did try a few different kernel 2.6 revisions (from test7-test9) but the behavior is the same. I also tried at least half a dozen 2.4.22 kernels, with the same result.

Any suggestions on solving this problem are welcome... for now the only thing I think would help would be to try 2.6 with an usb serial console patch to try and get the kernel panic/oops.

Len, you mentioned earlier that I could implement a thermal_zone through AML, do you have any pointers or code examples?

What say lspci -v?

I have some. Could you send me your dsdt, please?
