--- Comment #4 from Hans de Goede (jwrdegoede@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) ---
Kirk, Jonathan Cc-ed me on this bug since I've done a lot of work on
accelerometers on x86 tablets.

I notice you use the word "reboot(ed)" a lot in your last comment.

What happens if you power off the tablet and then power it back on again and
then directly start the livecd (presumably this is what you did during your
first test?).

This way the device is fully reset / in a clean hwstate when starting the
livecd.

Or reboot from a working Windows environment into the livecd ?  (maybe Windows
does something extra and rebooting keeps that state, combined with the livecd
because you have had the accelerometer work there before)

As for figuring out which DSDT node is actually the one used on your tablet.
Lets first focus on 1 single tablet (of your choosing) and ignore the other
tablet for now.

On the chosen tablet can you do:

ls -l /sys/bus/i2c/devices/

This should show a device for your accelerometer. E.g. "i2c-MXC6655:00" (but
maybe something else) please run:

cat /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-MXC6655:00/firmware_node/path

replacing "i2c-MXC6655:00" with the actual accelerometer i2c-device and then
let us know the output.

Also please run:

sudo acpidump -o acpidump.txt
sudo dmesg > dmesg.txt

And attach both generated .txt files here.
