Please send me by private email the gzipped output of acpidump and dmidecode for your laptop (please remove the UUID and serial numbers in the dmidecode output first). I will fine-comb it looking for what we could be doing wrong in thinkpad-acpi, because it really looks like there's a bug in thinkpad-acpi somewhere. Also, please refresh my memory, you are using the very latest thinkpad-acpi from ibm-acpi.sf.net, correct? -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
