Hi everyone, I recently tried to install gentoo linux on my HP nc6400
laptop, and everything works fine except for the following issues.
This may be related to:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-acpi&m=115583434909936&w=2
Here are the problems:
1. After booting gentoo, when I reboot, I can no longer enter the BIOS
setup screen by pressing F10.
2. After booting gentoo, when I reboot, the ACPI battery file does not
update the power status / events.
Here's how they happen:
1. Boot windows: everything works fine.
2. Reboot from windows: I can get into setup by pressing F10.
3. Boot Gentoo after having booted windows first: power status meter
works, files are updated, etc.
4. Reboot into Gentoo: I can no longer enter setup via F10.
5. Reboot into windows: Everything works again. On next bootup, F10
works fine.
Sometimes the keyboard will refuse to work until the system has booted
into the OS.
(This doesn't seem to consistently occur.)
Any ideas on how to go about fixing this?
