hi, Can someone assist me, please ! Need to get in touch with someone on the Fedora-team that can help. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8034 NOTE: please report the problem to the respective distros. ----------------------------------------------------------- > >------- Comment #27 from htejun@gmail.com 2007-09-19 02:16 ------- > Arne, sorry but can't really debug with the information you provided > till now. > I can't even determine whether it's a genuine driver/kernel bug or > kernel upgrade went wrong.

The problems have existed since Fc6. At the moment - I see this connected to more then the disk-drive, and the ACPI affects screen, touchpad, and other drivers, and program execution. As I am just a user, no kernel-hacker, - you may understand my problem. //ARNE <hr size=1>Be a better Globetrotter. <a href="http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=48254/*http://answers.yahoo.com/dir/_ylc=X3oDMTI5MGx2aThyBF9TAzIxMTU1MDAzNTIEX3MDMzk2NTQ1MTAzBHNlYwNCQUJwaWxsYXJfTklfMzYwBHNsawNQcm9kdWN0X3F1ZXN0aW9uX3BhZ2U-?link=list&sid=396545469">Get better travel answers </a>from someone who knows.
