Configuration for acpi seems to be broken; the sub-options of acpi (fan, cpu, etc) never appear in make menuconfig. the ACPI Config.in is relying on a CONFIG_ACPI_HT_ONLY that doesnt seem to get defined anywhere. Changing that line to .... if [ "$CONFIG_ACPI_HT_ONLY" != "y" ]; then .... works for me.
i don't know where you are getting this from, but i can go in and get this everytime. starting with a fresh tree and doing 'make menuconfig' or using one of my old configs and 'make oldconfig'. Jay
This is strange. It all works correctly, as you report, with a 'make menuconfig' on fresh tree. 'make oldconfig' over my .config from gentoo-sources 2.4.20-r2, followed by 'make menuconfig' behaves as I describe. It looks like there is some problem here, but Im now sure its not yours. sorry for the distraction.
