[ACPI] acpi patch 20020225 seems to work on Dell Inspiron 2500 but...

[Derek B. <der...@ho...>]

I finally got up the nerve to patch the 2.4.17 kernel and acpi is much more
obviously functional now. There are no more errors when I insert modules,
/proc/acpi/ac_adapter is always correct, .../processor/CPU0/info advertises
bus mastering, pm, throttling control and limit interface, but
acpi_battery.o, acpi_thermal and acpi_fan all appear to do nothing, and the
biggest problem is that acpid no longer seems to understand events.

Is there an acpid somewhere (not, it seems, at Sourceforge) that understands
the 20020225 patch?
