Hi,

I was surprised for a lot of VAIO's ACPI data submitted :)  Thanks a lot!
I'll add them into our ACPI data collection at
http://www.jp.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ACPI/data/?cvsroot=freebsd-jp
so please let me know if you don't like.

Also I would recommend you to subscribe acpi-jp@jp.freebsd.org for the
discussions on ACPI for FreeBSD development if you are interested in
ACPI.  Some ACPICA developers from Intel and other OS's developers,
such as Linux or NetBSD, are in the list.
# to subscribe, just send a `subscribe acpi-jp' mail to Majordomo@jp.freebsd.org
# Ah yes, never mind, English is OK.  We're talking almost in English now.

I think that there are so many VAIO users who wish to be happy with ACPI :)
Please send detailed reports to acpi-jp@jp.freebsd.org, I myself am not
a VAIO user but we have some tools and can do something to help.
# Actually, you can create ACPI BIOS data, called DSDT, from submitted
# dumpfile with Intel ASL compiler (iasl) in ports/devel/acpitools/
# and load your customized DATA in loader overriding BIOS.

Please feel free to join us :)

Thanks
