Hi Greg, I have HP Pavilion dv4-1414tx laptop. I don't know exactly what is (/was) the issue and why ACPI support is needed for these laptops. After your reply I realized that the list "http://www.linuxdriverproject.org/mediawiki/index.php/Drivers_Needed"; is not updated recently :(. Where can I find the equivalent updated list where contributions are needed for the driver projects? Thanks, Chetal.
