thanks for the acpidump.

            Store (0x07D0, OSYS)
            If (CondRefOf (\_OSI, Local0))
            {
                If (\_OSI ("Linux"))
                {
                    Store (0x01, LINX)
                }

    Name (\OSYS, 0x00)
    Name (\LINX, 0x00)
    Name (\PPCM, 0x00)

And LINX is otherwise not referenced, so I'll add this box to the NOP DMI list.

thanks,
