Bug 15956 – Vanilla Kernel don´t work in my noteboot

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Alexandre Figueiredo 2003-02-18 16:36:55 UTC]

Hello,
I install de Gentoo 1.4_RC2 in my Toshiba Notebook, but when I compile the 
kernel, it doesn't work good. When I download de Vanilla Sources, the version 
is 2.4.20.
My machine is a Satellite 1675 CDS, HD 6Gb, 64 Mb RAM, Sound CS4182 and ATI 
RAGE 3D with 4Mb. I gonna put more 128 Mb RAM. I emerge de GNOME Desktop.
I sow on the toshiba support page and discover that my notebook has ACPI. But 
this thing doesn't work. This feature is experimental!
So, how can I put my notebook up and running well with Gentoo Linux?
Please, sorry my english. I'm from Brazil.
Thank you.

Try a gentoo-sources, xfs-sources these are the gentoo kernels.  If it still doesn't work then it is a kernel bug and will be submitted upstream.

we can only fix gentoo kernels also

We've got random ghost bugs coming up from the dead, sending status back
to INVALID.
