I am having ACPI problems with a dell inspiron 5000e, I hear it has a
broken implementation of APM, so could quite possibly have a broken ACPI
also.  When ACPI is enabled in the kernel (-pre10 and earlier ones also)
the system soft-hangs after loading the ACPI definitions.  both
ctrl-alt-del and alt-sysrq-b will restart the system.  If there is
anything else i can do to provide more info please let me know.  Running
without ACPI or APM is stable, even with the r128 kernel
drivers/XF4.0.2...battery usage is a bit quick, however =)
