Hey. I have searched various sites, but cannot find a solution to my problem. I'm running a mythtv media center, and I need automatic startup - so of course I use ACPI. (it works with speed stepping CONFIG_X86_POWERNOW_K8_ACPI=y) I have an asus k8n-vm motherboard that support acpi 2.0 # uname -a Linux mythbox 2.6.18-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP Mon Jan 29 20:38:18 CET 2007 i686 AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux However I have one big problem (trying to solve it the last 2-3 months) /proc/acpi/alarm is missing so I tried to configure this in my kernel adding the following to my ".config": CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS=y (i found the following site http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-acpi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg04284.html but haven't had any luck with that either, e.g. adding CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS) but each time I run "make menuconfig" or "genkernel --menuconfig all" ... the configure is not visible in the menu system or in the .config file. Somehow the system does not accept the configuration. I really do not understand this since the system, at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ACPI_Wakeup i found that my system should be able to use this function grep -r CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS arch/* arch/x86_64/defconfig:CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS=y Anyone might know what is wrong?
