ACPI problems on 5.1

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


On a Compaq Armada V300 notebook, if I load the acpi module, boot fails after 
the kernel prints about half a dozen "acpi_bus_number: can't get _ADR", fails 
to detect any of the hardware and panics because of failure to mount root.

With the acpi module disabled, the machine is able to boot up.

This same machine used to be able to run 5.0-CURRENT with ACPI enabled and I 
think the ACPICA merge at around May 2003 could be responsible.

Should I try to get a old copy of the acpica parts or does 5.1 depend on new 
stuff in it? I am thinking of getting src/sys/dev/acpica and 
src/sys/contrib/dev/acpica from around 1 April 2003
