compaq nx6120

Hi there

My compaq nx6120 runs a Debian 4.0r2 and a kernel 2.6.18-6-686. Most features work nicely, but there are a couple of quite annoying problems I couldn't find a clear answer:

1. My mouse very often dies and dmesg gives the following message:

uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: host controller process error, something bad happened!
uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: host controller halted, very bad!
uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: HC died; cleaning up

usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 3

It is interesting that this usually happens when i slightly move the laptop on the table. Moving the mouse or its cable does not cause it to hang. I've seen several posts with similar problems, but not a good solution to it.

2) ACPI isn't working. I can't see the battery details and the computer does not completely shutdown. It stops at "System is halted" and hangs.

I would appreciate any help on these matters. Thanks,
Beny
