Thanks!

With that change and with the pointer from Faye Pearson
<faye-6JSjyQ0Qj1ReoWH0uzbU5w@public.gmane.org> to add the right disgnature to my overriding dsdt,
acpi works here with 2.4.21-pre4.

One remaining gotcha is that swsusp doesn't seem to work.
When I 'echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep' the machine just locks. No status
or anything.

I will go back and make sure I applied the swsup-acpi patch...
