[-- Attachment #1 --] I have just installed -CURRENT on my Dell Inspiron 3700 laptop, and I immediately found two problems with ACPI: 1. The sio1 port (IrDA) is not detected. I had to add hint.sio.1.at="isa" hint.sio.1.port="0x2F8" hint.sio.1.irq="3" to /boot/device.hints in order to get it probed at boot. I think that this is a fault of the ACPI BIOS. 2. S3/STR does not work: if I run "acpiconf -s 3", the machine initiates a strange suspend process (stops HD, turns off LCD, then turns it on again, waits, and then seems to enter suspended state). However, when I try to resume the machine, it hangs with the power led on, HD on and LCD off; I have to press the power button for more than 5 seconds in order to turn off the laptop). There also are problems with the ACPI time counter, already reported to phk. I send attached a .tar.gz containing the output of acpidump(8), pciconf(8), and dmesg(8). Just FYI ;-) Also, I have a question: the acpiconf command can enable or disable ACPI power management but... is it enabled or disabled after boot? I cannot find any way to obtain this information.
