Thanks for the quick reply Len.  What exactly is the PNP0C0D?  I got
the DSDT.dsl file, though - in the latest acpica-unix-20040527
package, some of the directory names are uppercase, and it took me a
minute to figure out why it couldn't find things (first example was
that it couldn't find ../namespace/nssomething.c.....) .  How do I
know if the DSDT does anything special for Windows?  I am almost
certain that writing a driver for the memory stick reader is above my
abilities (currently) but I have been considering it.
