Re: PROBLEM: acpi not detected on thinkpad SL500

I am sorry to say that you have an enhanced IdeaPad with "ThinkPad" written
in the cover.

There is nothing we can do to help you.  You can, however, ask Lenovo for
IdeaPad Linux support.  Maybe if enough people do it, they will either write
the drivers or publish the information required for someone to write a
driver.

I will add a note that the ThinkPad SL500 has IdeaPad firmware there.

I am slowly working in a way to keep those pages up to date.  However, until
I do, you can always get far more up-to-date information on thinkwiki.org.

Note that nobody that owns a SL500 took the time to *properly* fill in
information about it in ThinkWiki yet...
