As requested via syslog message, I'm reporting the results I obtained
using acpi_osi=Linux on the boot command line:
Without this addition to command line, I get:
Apr 23 14:04:38 mudlark kernel: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored

Apr 23 14:04:38 mudlark kernel: ACPI: If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better,

With this addition, I get:

I'm not sure if this constitutes better but I thought I'd report it anyway.
