If you post the output from acpidump it will be easy to tell. Hi Len, It's a desktop box so it doesn't have a battery. In the meantime I was playing with DSDT which was producing many compile errors/warnings but after I "fixed" it nothing much happened except irq routing changed. Basically, my main gripe is that the fan is always on (although slow spinning) and reported temperature is always 40degC, no matter is the CPU idle or busy. Which in combination with no C states makes me think if things could be better if everything was working correctly.
