acpi on medion laptop

Hello,
I have some problems to make work acpi on my new laptop. I have just install mandrake9.2.
In order to have acpi, i compile my own kernel 2.4.22 with the last patch acpi.

extraxt of my .config :
#
# ACPI Support
#
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_RELAXED_AML is not set

After booting on my new kernel, i notice that my fan works less often than before and as i can't see the temperature i'm anxious for my laptop....

The good thing is that now i can see the level of my battery .

[root@localhost han]# acpi -V

     Battery 1: charging, 88%, 00:50:20 until charged

No support for device type: thermal
AC Adapter 1: on-line

[root@localhost han]# acpid
acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy

[root@localhost han]# modprobe thermal
modprobe: Can't locate module thermal

But i can't see the temperature of my computer...
How can i make this work fine?

Here is my dmesg log

Thanks for any help.

[root@localhost han]# dmesg | grep ACPI

Hello!

I have ASUS M3700N laptop. And I have experienced problems like you yours. The cure is one of the following:
(1) Use last 2.4.23 kernel and make sure, that you have applied last acpi patch (or it contains it inside).
(2) Use last 2.6.0 kernel. Everything is working fine now.

umka
