My Dell 8200 laptop used to work reasonably well with ACPI, the only problem being that the ASL was doing the pass-by-reference/pass-by-value mixup that resulted in a lot of 'cannot allcoate 0 byte' problems. With a patch that worked around this, most acpi functions seemed to work. With the latest ACPI, the patch that I had seems to have been integrated, but now there are new problems. The battery reporting seems to no longer work, and I get a lot of the following messages on the console: -0166: *** Error: UtAllocate: Attempt to allocate zero bytes What information do you need to track this down?
