If this is indeed the problem (ACPI), why didn't it affect .16? I would
be willing to take it out of my kernel, except I really don't want to
recompile. Anyone know if just setting acpi=off in lilo.conf will do
the same thing? I will try it, but I don't really want to recompile
with opengl enabled again unless this is sure to work.
