Well, Marc seems to think that it should work. Could be an HCF and could
be an HSF. However, neither driver seems to compile correctly for you.

Only a guess, I'm afraid.

I don't know your machine and I have no experience at all with Debian.
However, experience from the past seems to indicate that distro kernels
sometimes don't work with these drivers. Sometimes fresh kernel.org
source is necessary, with the appropriate ACPI patches. That isn't
always so, but sometimes it is.

It also seems to have become clear that you *have* to use the same
compiler (gcc/cc) version for the HSF modules as the kernel was compiled
with. For you that's a problem, since you don't know what gcc version
Debian used for your 2.4.18 kernel. You could always ask Debian :-)

My best bet, would be to get hold of the kernel.org source, apply the
two separate ACPI patches (2.5 MB basic patches and 2 kB KACPID
interrupt patch), configure and install that kernel and only then
compile Marc's driver.

Sounds horrible, I know, as well as unfair. If you don't feel up to it,
ask a friend to help.

I've sent you the KACPID patch separately and the source for the ACPI
patches (acpi-20020517-2.4.18.diff, 2 MB) is to be found at:

 http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi

Best,

Tony
