 |
|
Hi,
I have installed Gentoo 1.2 a few days ago without problem. I want to be able to shutdown my machine with a dock app for shutting down my machine (wmShutdown). Fine, but to do that ACPI in the kernel must be enable and if it is, then the keybord is not responding, it is just dead!
I didn't have this sort of problem with Gentoo 1.1, so maybe there is a bug here? Can anyone hep me?
Thanks |

I had exactly the same. and went back to vanilla-sources (2.4.18). Solved the problem.
I think there's a problem with an ACPI patch in gentoo-sources 2.4.19-r5/6/7 |

Ok, if I want to go back to vanilla-sources, what I need to do? Unmerge my actual kernel then emerge vanilla-sources?
Thank you for your help! |

Delete the '/usr/src/linux' symlink which points to your current source tree, emerge vanilla-sources, compile and install your kernel (make sure you back up your old kernel first) and modules. Reboot, then emerge any modules you have installed (nvidia-kernel, alsa, lm_sensors, etc). |
