Hello,

Just trying 2.6.27-rc5 on my Dell Ubuntu laptop (an Inspiron 1525n), and 
noticed the following in dmesg:

[    0.100046] PCI: Using configuration type 1 for base access
[    0.101763] ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT
[    0.101991] ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
[    0.102045] ACPI: DMI System Vendor: Dell Inc.
[    0.102096] ACPI: DMI Product Name: Inspiron 1525
[    0.102151] ACPI: DMI Product Version:
[    0.102202] ACPI: DMI Board Name: 0U990C
[    0.102253] ACPI: DMI BIOS Vendor: Dell Inc.
[    0.102305] ACPI: DMI BIOS Date: 03/10/2008
[    0.102356] ACPI: Please send DMI info above to linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org

I've tried acpi_osi=Linux as a boot parameter, and not seen any difference in 
behaviour. This laptop was supplied with Ubuntu installed, so I have no 
Windows licence to compare against.

I'm not subscribed to the list, so please CC me if you'd like any more 
details.

Hope this can be fixed up suitably,
