I have a Toshiba 3000-400 laptop, which previously needed a ACPI table bypass for it to detect the battery power levels, which I have been doing up to 2.4.17..
I compiled up the standard 2.4.20 and my bypass hack didn't work anymore..
I downloaded the 20030109 patch and tried it out with 2.4.20, but the compilation failed in
arch/i386/kernel/mpparse.c
I replaced the offending function by the one from the previous 20021212 patch and the 2.4.20 kernel compiled OK.
The patched 2.4.20 kernel now detects the laptop battery correctly along with lots of other goodies that I'd not seen before..
Bye for now, and keep up the good work..
