Feel free to file an ACPI bug here and I'll be happy to look into it: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI Component: power-processor It should describe the behaviour of the two configurations A. Cool&Quiet enabled in BIOS B. Cool & Quiet disabled in BIOS and what is unexpected. It should include the output from acpidmp taken in each configuration. acpidmp is available in /usr/sbin/, or in pmtools: http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/ Only with this can we tell what curve ball the BIOS is throwing. thanks, -Len
