Description of problem:
When running with ACPI enabled on Severn, doing something simple like powering
down og even just closing the lid, will cause a crash. I'm uncertain how hard
this crash is, but it's hard enough that the system is unusable afterwards.
Ctrl-Alt-Del does work though...
I'm attaching my /var/log/messages for you to look at. The crash information is
in there as well!

The system is an IBM ThinkPad T30 (2366-DG3)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.21-20.1.2024.2.1.nptl

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Severn...
2. Power off
3.
    

Actual Results:  Messages similar to those in messages.txt(attached) are
displayed and system is no longer usable(other acpi events like closing lid will
do this too)

Expected Results:  The system should just power off (or perform the action for
the event that was triggered)

Hope these will help!

ACPI EC method errors and bottom of stack trace is identical to the ThinkPad T40 
failure in bug 98849.
