Sure.  I'll let you know.  I'm tweaking the kernel right now, but am
still including the ACPI functions.  Battery monitoring and power
off/idle timeout seem to work great.  I'm a little wary of using the
suspend, just because I've never seen it work right, even in Windows. 
But maybe I'll play around with it.

Also, I think the ext2fs (even the first time) was the filesystem of
the initrd image.  I am using ext3 now on both the /boot and / slices.
 But when booting, it says "Filesystem is ext2fs".  Like I said, I
think it's the kernel boot image.
