Sure, but I will be out of office to handle some urgent family affair in following two days, so response may be slow. Hi Bernhard, Could you please help to send me following info? 1) /proc/iomem with 593669c2ac0f applied 2) /proc/iomem with 593669c2ac0f reverted 3) output of "acpidump > acpi.bin" or "cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > acpi.bin" Thanks!
