Has anyone else encountered this problem? I get the same on my T41 when
I boot the 2.6.13 kernel. 2.6.12.* worked well.
The latest kernel has soma some acpi features added (generic hotkey
support), but I haven't been able to compile it such that ibm-acpi would
still work (or even get loaded).

Does anyone have 2.6.13 working well with ibm-acpi v0.11?

Cheers, Leon.
