Narrative:
After pushback and engine start; upon turning air conditioning packs on; acrid smoke began coming out of vents. Shut off packs and recirculating fan while simultaneously returning to gate. Once the packs were turned off the smoke stopped increasing. Deplaned normally without incident. Smoke appears to have come from a loss of the left hydraulic system.
