Dear all:
          ACPI work well on my platform (Toshiba machine + Redhat 8.0 +
kernel 2.4.20).
The machine directly shutdown in S5 but it won't umount HDD before doing
that. It will
damage my HDD. Who has good idea to deal with this problem? (How to umount
HDD 
before entering S5?)
 
Thanks in advance!

I am happy to see that a Compal guy is trying Linux with latest acpi.
I have seen some trouble with Toshiba-compal laptops, plus, I have
added a thermal zone definition for some of them, with passive control,
which do not exist in the AML.  Can I send some of those reports to you
in order to get it in BIOS ?  Toshiba do not answer to me, and I must
admit I have not tryed to contact Compal for this purpose.

Cheers,
