Re: [Xen-users] ACPI in unstable

[Jason <xen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been able to test this on two machines (an athlon 64 and a Pentium M) 
with the same results in 2.6.16 in xen.  I can't test in a
vanilla kernel at this time.  The odd part is that I can disable all of the 
ACPI triggers (button, fan, temp, etc)  just as long as the
base ACPI support is compiled in, networking works.
