re: acpi /proc problems

Has anyone got acpi support going with psyche?  I remember a post a few
weeks ago where someone mentioned they had it working.  This led me on a
trail of discovery, but now I'm at a dead end!  I already had kernel
2.4.19 installed and running, and I added the acpi support (as
modules).  The kernel boots now with the message

ACPI: Core Subsystem version [20011018]
ACPI: Subsystem enabled

instead of the apm message.  The howtos I found said this is all
good...  but!  When I try and start acpid, it returns

acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: No such file or directory
acpid startup failed

and I look at /proc and there is no acpi folder.  Any suggestions as to
what I've done wrong?  The howto at
http://www.columbia.edu/~ariel/acpi/acpi_howto.txt states 
 "You can test the driver by examining /proc/sys/acpi; if there isn't
one, odds are you didn't configure the kernel correctly."
Theres no /proc/sys/acpi folder either.  What have I done wrong?  Any
help is greatly appreciated.


btw, this automatic random sig seems appropriate to me at this time!
