As requested via syslog message, I'm reporting the results I obtained 
using acpi_osi=Linux on the boot command line:

Without this addition to command line, I get:

Apr 23 14:04:38 mudlark kernel: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
Apr 23 14:04:38 mudlark kernel: ACPI: DMI System Vendor:

linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org
Apr 23 14:04:38 mudlark kernel: ACPI: If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better, 
please notify linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org

With this addition, I get:

Apr 23 14:13:57 mudlark kernel: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query honored via 
cmdline
Apr 23 14:13:57 mudlark kernel: ACPI: DMI System Vendor:

Apr 23 14:13:57 mudlark kernel: ACPI: Please send DMI info above to 
linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org

I'm not sure if this constitutes better but I thought I'd report it anyway.
