[ACPI] 20020329 Report

[Stephane D. <ste...@an...>]

Hello,

I tested the last patch on a Sony Vaio GR-214MP with a 2.4.18 kernel.
Please see my dmesg.txt file attached for details on boot.

So far so good, nearly happy about everything. I have only one (but
quite important) problem. IRQs assigning which seems to be borked again.

I use the integrated winmodem (connexant modem with rockwell chipset) on
my laptop to connect through vpn & ssh. As i don't have winXP anymore on
it, only linux will do. I've been running on kernel 2.4.17 + 20011218
ACPI patch + IRQ patch provided on this list which is the only
combination able to detect my modem so far ... As soon as i apply
another ACPI patch, wvdial says : 

tux3:~# wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.conf 
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.
Port Scan<*1>: S0   
ttyS0.orig<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- nothing.
Port Scan<*1>: S1   S2   S3   
Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?

Furthermore, messages add :
Apr  2 08:38:11 tux3 kernel: PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin C of
device 00:1d.2.

Any idea if i missed something ?

Thanks for your help.
Steph
