using elevator=cfq only gives a hal error. whatever. Yeah, unsetting irqpoll messed up everything (i.e. booting default way). My Network is not being recognized, I can see "error loading ibm_acpi" at startup. When restarting network, no cable networks are found.
Loading my Wireless driver/module "bmc43xx" and "acer_acpi" freezes my laptop. Just look at this and the following thread. Now you know why I enabled irqpoll - dmesg told me. And it made life easier. I re-enabled irqpoll (but not elevator=cfq) until it is solved. I really need networking.
