hi, I have a fujitsu AMILO, SUSE LINUX 9.0 and installed ACPI. try this: in file /boot/grub/menu.lst add the following items: (I have GRUB as my bootloader, the exact directory may differ) apm=off acpi=on if you don't want acpi on your pci's, type also: pci=noacpi then you should control /var/log/boot.msg; the daemon acpid should be running. also there should be the directory /proc/acpi/... If it's not there, try installing the component in YaST => Runlevel-Editor. So it should work. But be warned: 1. Read the obstacles of ACPI documentation carefully, esp. "SUSPEND" etc. 2. In battery mode there isn't a proper warning from ACPI when battery is low (although ACPI recognizes the current low capacity). I work on that issue myself. by the way, you can always control ACPI by starting, in a shell: acpiw or gtkacpiw (grahical frontend) regards, markus
