Thanks a lot!  I was able to patch my i81k A14 DSDT with it, looks like
they used the same buggy code all over the place.  I will post my i81k
a14 DSDT as soon as I can verify it works.

I am having trouble getting it to work in the latest patch (2.4.21-pre4
acpi-20030228).  It looks like the Wiki page on installing a custom DSDT
is out of date.  osl.c has some new override functionality now, but I
can't seem to find out where to hook my DSDT in.

Could someone please update that Wiki page to reflect the new code
structure.

Thanks,
