Aside from the new model (and different layout in /proc/acpi), one
critical thing it has for me is (seemingly) correct PCI IRQ routing..
with the stock 2.4.18 version, several devices on my sony R505E would
not get IRQs assigned and would thus be unusable. With the latest
ACPI patch, they get the IRQs they need.
