I am happy to announce the 3rd release of my laptop-oriented patchset.
Some patches that I liked in -dis1 and -dis2 are missing, notably
packet-mode cdrw/dvd writing, because they proved unstable. (A couple
of others are missing because they proved unmergable; they might come
back if anyone wanted them. If your favorite patch went away, mail me
and let me know..)

Its been very stable for me for about 3 days, including swsusp, boot
winxp, read-only-mount the ext3 fs as ext2, copy stuff off, etc, then
resume linux.

Bug reports welcome, and nvidia users, I'm still looking to hear from
more of you. (Those of you who have responded already should have
replies by now; if not, let me know..)

The patch is against 2.4.21-rc6 and is available at
http://www.gotontheinter.net/kernel/ (including an untested update to
rc7)

- ACPI 20030523-2.4.21-rc3.diff
