Hi, on my notebook, if I want to use the battery status via ACPI, I must rebuild the kernel with a custom AmlCode[] struct. I have take the info from: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Fix_Common_ACPI_Problems#3._Build-in_Options_for_Kernel_2.6.9_and_Later These are the .config changes: # diff .config configs/kernel-2.6.12-i686-smp.config 0a1 > # i386 3,4c4,5 < # Linux kernel version: 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4_acpi_smp < # Sun Jul 31 11:21:51 2005 --- > # Linux kernel version: 2.6.12.2 > # Tue Jul 26 12:10:55 2005 179,180d179 < CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT=y < CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE="/usr/src/linux/\ ACER-Aspire_1672WLMi-1.09-custom.hex" 317c316 < # CONFIG_STANDALONE is not set --- > CONFIG_STANDALONE=y 1996d1994 < # CONFIG_DVB_AV7110_FIRMWARE is not set My question is: Is possible to setup this custom AmlCode[] kernel structure whitout rebuild the FC kernel? Many thanks. -- Dario Lesca <d.lesca@xxxxxxxxxx>
