On my Acer > Aspire 5022 for some time I've been getting APIC errors (most commonly "40 > (40)") APIC errors have nothing to do with ACPI. (other than the fact that on lots of systems, ACPI is required if you want to configure the APIC). If you don't like the APIC errors, then run with "noapic". very few laptop uses would notice a difference. > But this still doesn't explain why it seems like I cannot make a user account > on the acpi.sf.net/dsdt page and why my previous e-mail did not arrive to the > list.

If you want to file a bug and attach a dsdt, use the bugzilla above. cheers, -Len
