[ltp] re:Please help with T40 and 2.6.8 on Debian

[Bob Alexander]

Joan,
thank you very much.

Please be patient (all of you, not only Joan :)):

1) Where do I download the patches you and others talk about ? What is=20
the proper way of applying them to the 2.6.9 original kernel (done that=20
before but do not remember the right process).

2) I read opposing comments between APM and ACPI, each saying it's=20
better !!! :( Often ACPI advocates say that APM is becoming legacy and=20
that it does not monitor enough events. You seem to be perfectly happy=20
with it though ... I am puzzled !

Ciao from Rome, Italy in a bright sunny day 17 deg Celsius in the morning,
Bob
