Re: [ACPI] Multiple problems with battery info / status

[Carl T. <ce...@ca...>]

The problem I am reporting has nothing to do with USB; that is a
seperate issue.  With the Linux 2.4.18 / ACPI 20020517 / Swsusp6 combo,
I can in fact now use USB without my computer locking whereas I could
not previously.  Either USB driver works fine for me now, not just the
alternate driver (which doesn't work with my CF reader).

When I originally heard the suggestion that the keyboard lockups when
reading the battery info file might be related to USB I tried compiling
the kernel without USB support.  This did not fix the problem.
