I just uploaded it to kernel.org, and I expect that I'll do the final 2.4.1 tomorrow, before leaving for NY and LinuxWorld. Please test that the pre-kernel works for you..
Hello Linus,
can we please see Andrew's latest ACPI fixes ([Acpi] ACPI source release
updated: 1-25-2001) in 2.4.1 final? ftp://download.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/acpica-linux-20010125.tar.gz)
Thanks,

I'm running it here.. No problems yet on my Toshiba test laptop, which is the same behavior (for me) on 2.4.0-pre10 vanilla.

Summary of changes for this label: 01_25_01
Core ACPI CA Subsystem:
Restructured the implementation of object store support within the interpreter. This includes support for the Store operator as well as any ASL operators that include a target operand.Partially implemented support for Implicit Result-to-Target conversion. This is when a result object is converted on the fly to the type of an existing target object. Completion of this support is pending further analysis of the ACPI specification concerning this matter.
CPU-specific code has been removed from the subsystem (hardware directory).
New Power Management Timer functions added
Linux OS Services Layer (OSL):
Moved system state transition code to the core, fixed it, and modified Linux OSL accordingly.Fixed C2 and C3 latency calculations.
We no longer use the compilation date for the version message on initialization, but retrieve the version from
AcpiGetSystemInfo().Incorporated for fix Sony VAIO machines.
Quoted 7 lines
Documentation:
The Programmer Reference has been updated and reformatted.ASL Compiler:
Version X2013:
Fixed a problem where the line numbering and error reporting could get out of sync in the presence of multiple include files.

I just tried adding this to 2.4.1-pre11 and the compile failed, the problem i've been having with ACPI is the kernel soft-hangs just after loading the tables. Using APM or no power management at all doesn't hang.
Hardware: Dell Inspiron 5000e, bios A04 (latest provided by Dell)
I have heard of some bugs in Dell's ACPI implementation, but since so many people have dell machines it may be worth trying to work around, or even detect the buggy implementation and disable ACPI with an error printed.
I can donate time if needed, just let me know what needs to be tested.
Thanks,
dwild

Andrew's latest ACPI fixes (acpica-linux-20000125 patched against 2.4.0) compile fine here and don't hang on my Vaio after loading tables.
That's a start. I'll play around some more.

Unfortunately, pcmcia modules fail to load. I can't understand the interaction.
The message displayed on boot when starting the service says:

I resolved this issue by using yenta_socket.
For my RH7.0 system, /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia needs to be edited to show:
PCIC=yenta_socket

I am the loser :-(
2.4.1-pre10 (with Andrew's ACPI fixes included) and 2.4.1-pre11 + 1-25-2001 patch bring back the pppd slowdown on my system.
2.4.1-pre9 was fine...

Personally I advocate building all pcmcia stuff into the kernel. It has never failed before, and its core hardware on your laptop, so it will always be there. Why bother with modules at all for core functionality...
