    To my knowledge, the ac series has the only up to date pnpbios patch for 2.4.
    You may, however, want to try the latest 2.6-test kernel which ships with an
    improved pnpbios driver. Is there a particular PnPBIOS feature you are looking
    for in 2.4? In other words which PnPBIOS services interest you?

    Thanks,
    Adam
