Hi, I installed SuSE 8.1 on my Toshiba without any major problems. However Laptop Power Management does not work. It claims that my ACPI installation is partial and I need install at least battery and processor module to make it work. I tried insmod to load these modules. I tried to compile SuSE Kernel (2.4.19-4GB) with /boot/vmlinuz.config . I included all acpi modules into kernel, changed cpu to P3 and removed kernel hacking (does not compile with this option). Nothing really changed. I got files in /proc/acpi dir but power applet in KDE still does not work. Questions: 1. Is it just applet or ACPI itself? 2. Shall I still apply patch from ACPI4Linux? 3. How can I verify if ACPI is working properly? thanks, Mariusz
