kernel 2.6.20-12 of earlier to run Feisty.

Nothing's changed, I had to log in with ctlr-alt-f1 to save the ouptput of

Your fix for module i2c_ec.ko also works on my Acer 4001 WLMi.
See file "dmesg after booting 2.6.20.14".

I can confirm this error on my Acer Travelmate 4001 WLMi laptop.
After upgrading to feisty kernel 2.6.20-14-generic stopped booting while
