I believe there are no newer updates for this BIOS.

I will try to test this with a Windows installation. 
Is it the case that this BIOS which clearly has
some kind of an ACPI capability should be written off.

How can I test the capabilities, or seek help in 
solving of the kinks or idiosyncrasies of this 
BIOS.  Is Award/Phoenix represented on this forum?
Do they support the work of making ACPI function
on Linux?

Thanks,

--Chris
