Hi,

Please provide 'cat /proc/interrupts'.
Could you try if such patch works?

Thanks,
Alex.

Hi,

There is an ACPI regression in 2.6.25-rc6, which causes the ACPI keys
to stop working on my laptop, an Asus V6VA. git bisect identified the
appended commit as guilty, and reverting it indeed fixes the problem
for me. Attached are my .config, a good dmesg and a bad one. The diff
between both dmesg reveals this interesting hunk:

    ACPI: EC: Handle IRQ storm on Acer laptops

    On some Acer systems, the HW fails to clear the GPE source,
    causing an interrupt storm.

    So in EC interrupt mode, we count how many interrupts we
    receive when waiting.  If we get more than 5, we give
    up on interrupt mode and revert to polling mode.

    Also, for polling mode to work on Acers, we need
    to insert a delay.
