    Hello,
    I am having trouble making ACPI work on my Inspiron 8500.
    1)I have acpi=on in my grub.conf.
    2) kernel version: kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl
    3) acpi rpm:

            [root@insomnia fs]# rpm -q -a | grep acpi
            acpid-1.0.2-5
            
            

    When I do "modprobe ac" I get this error:

    [root@insomnia fs]# modprobe ac
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/acpi/ac.o: init_module:
    No such device
    Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
    including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
          You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/acpi/ac.o: insmod
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/acpi/ac.o failed
    /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/drivers/acpi/ac.o: insmod ac
    failed

    Any ideas?

    Thank you !
