I am running eCS 2.0 RC6a with ACPI 3.15 and use the kernel supplied with ACPI 3.15. I have installed Fixpak 5. Hardware is a Gigabyte GA-K8NS Ultra-939 motherboard (nForce3 Ultra chipset), 3GB RAM, Radeon 9600 Video 256MB, one 150GB SATA drive (one partition - no Boot Manager) with Danis 1.8.5, one SATA DVD-RW. I use UniAud? 1.9.12 to drive the on-board ALC850 sound, and GenMac? to drive the on-board Marvell 8001 gigabit LAN (see attached logs).

Using ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC /TMR, system does not boot ~1 out of 3 tries. It will hang when the video tries to switch screen resolution for the desktop. The monitor loses sync and the 'no signal' message appears on screen. I need to hard reset the computer. I have not found any better switches for ACPI.PSD.

When it boots successfully it seems to work well (that is when I got the logs..:-).

ACPI 3.14 would not boot at all - it would Trap 0008 when trying to load UniAud? (not heavily tested). I have not tried any earlier versions on this hardware.

I had to replace the motherboard on a working eCS 2.0 system (using the ACPIPollingFull drivers) with a MSI H55M-E33 model with Intel Core i3 CPU and 4GB DDR3 RAM.

Every time I tried to boot I would get a TrapE shortly after the desktop appeared. I determined that it was ACPIDaemon (in the startup folder) that was causing this. By not starting ACPIDaemon, I am able to boot with either ACPI.PSD /Q, ACPI.PSD /SMP /Q, or ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC /Q. I prefer ACPI.PSD /SMP /Q so that I can use WinOS/2.

I will upload logs and a screen shot of the TrapE.

The link '​http://local.88watts.net/software.html' shown in the Wiki for the 3.19.02 version of ACPI gives an 'Error 404'.
