System Information
	Manufacturer: Acer            
	Product Name: Aspire 5610     

With 2.6.22, did you notice any functional difference with "acpi_osi=!Linux"?

(or since the default changed at 2.6.23, with 2.6.23 or later
 do you notice any difference with "acpi_osi=Linux"?)

Please send me the output from acpidump.
If you don't have acpidump, you can get it from pmtools here:
