well, yeah. Don't do that. As you can see from your error, something needs it.

ACPI is needed for a lot more stuff than only 'power managment'. There are 
even computers that won't boot without ACPI.


Hmm, well that's never been a problem before 2.6.21, and I've tried leaving the acpi stuff in and got the same error. And actually mine won't boot with acpi; I have to have acpi=off and noapic set in grub. IIRC, it's because I have an Nforce 5 chipset, but it's been almost a year since I had to deal with that so I could be wrong about that being the reason.

Reply to the message, not your original message.

A lot of people are using mail clients who can thread the messages. You are 
destroying that threads.


What are you talking about? I never reply to my own messages. Whatever is destroying your threads is not due to any action of mine.

ok, time to open some bugs. Seriously, if your board does not boot with ACPI, 
you should open bugs about it. And the problem you have when building kernels 
(so open two bugs).
I had a board that would not find its IDE-ports if not build with ACPI..

Well, in kmail, all your replys are to your own messages - and it is hard to 
tell what is quoted and what belongs to you - it is all the same.
Since you are the only one, where I have the problem, I blame your mail 
client ;)

Here is a working kernel .config for a nforce 550. I have to use
acpi=off also. I left the acpi stuff in there though.

I also have problems with Kmail on two other e-mail lists, in which the 
thread busting is far worse than here - sometimes the result is 
indistinguishable from chaos. I think the fault is in Kmail, as it only 
started happening with version 1.9.6.

I am on 7 lists. And on these 7 lists Peter's mails are the only ones which 
are problematic for me.....

The only broken thread I have is where Peter Hoff cut out the cruft and
posted his kernel config.  I'm not sure if that is what you're talking
about (Doesn't seem to be) or whether it's Evolution fixing the breaks
behind the scenes you are referring to.

See below, KMail here as well and no problems at all in other lists/threads.
