hi all,
I installed the new kernel today 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 on my T21.
1. ibm-acpi module was not autoloaded. These are on the only meesages in
dmesg:
can i fix this or ... go back to the old kernel ?
The old kernel is still there. When you see the GRUB spalsh screen at
boot, press any key. Then you'll get a selector for all the kernels you
have.

Thanks for any hints
Efthym
P.S is there any chance in the near future for ibm-acpi being upgraded to
v0.11 in the default kernel ?
Thanks Matthew,
I was going to try the development kernel see if that has the same problems,
but the one is rawhide is kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC5.i686.rpm . I'm worried
about the FC5 part. If I install this will I be able to go back to FC4
labeled kernels ?
It's likely that an FC5 kernel RPM won't even install in FC4 due to
dependencies.
up2date and yum always install kernels so that the old kernels remain
available. You can set an older kernel to be the default by editing
/etc/grub.conf and changing the "default=" value. default=0 is the first
kernel in the list, default=1 is the second, etc.
