I asked if copying of single file helps... I didn't ask you to copy all acpi files two kernel releases back and make it work...
If there is a relatively simple way to get this to work. Let me know.
Copy one file: drivers/acpi/ec.c

Sorry, I should have explained in more detail. I did copy just the one file to start with, and got this :
CHK     include/linux/version.h
CHK     include/linux/compile.h
CC      drivers/acpi/ec.o
drivers/acpi/ec.c: In function 'acpi_ec_gpe_handler':
drivers/acpi/ec.c:467: warning: implicit declaration of function
'acpi_os_execute'
drivers/acpi/ec.c:467: error: 'OSL_EC_BURST_HANDLER' undeclared (first
use in this function)
drivers/acpi/ec.c:467: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported
only once
drivers/acpi/ec.c:467: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [drivers/acpi/ec.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/acpi] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2


Is there something I can do to get this going ?

change call to acpi_os_execute to call to acpi_os_queue_for_execution() as it was in 2.6.17.
It is just rename of the function in this case.

I changed this:
status = acpi_os_execute(OSL_EC_BURST_HANDLER,acpi_ec_gpe_query, ec);

To this:
status = acpi_os_queue_for_execution(OSD_PRIORITY_MED,acpi_ec_gpe_query, ec);

Not sure if this is the right thing there: OSD_PRIORITY_MED

It compiles with a warning:

# make
CHK     include/linux/version.h
CHK     include/linux/compile.h
LD [M]  drivers/acpi/processor.o
Kernel: arch/i386/boot/bzImage is ready  (#29)
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST
WARNING: drivers/acpi/processor.o - Section mismatch: reference to
.init.data: from .text between 'acpi_processor_power_init' (at
offset 0xe75) and 'acpi_safe_halt'


LD [M]  drivers/acpi/processor.k


Is this warning a problem  ?

Well, nothing seems to have changed it works as before. Still no events received by acpid

Otherwise I'll just leave it, and hopefully in a year or so I'll be able to upgrade.

Ok.
Thanks,
Nigel.
