the role of the dstd

Hi

Since my asus laptop's acpi won't work decently in Linux (lid close won't generate event and such) I've been reading up and I've come to the conclusion that the problem must be a messed up DSTD.

I do have some questions about it, though.

For one, if the DSTD is part of the BIOS, how come windows does work, while it must rely on the same data (I haven't installed any drivers for power mgt yet lid close does work, and so do the volume butons) If windows knows something we don't, can't we get the correct data from there?

Kind regards,
J. Hendrickx, hoping to see my suspend to ram working someday
