Which version of the N610C BIOS are you using? (F.14 is the latest on the hp.com website.) I know that the _OSI("Windows 2001") bug will be fixed in the F.15 release, but I don't think the _GL_ portion of your patch will be included. Did you have to remove the Acquire & Release of _GL_ in order to get xbat to work? (This is not a problem we see with Linux ACPI in 2.4.21, so I think that FreeBSD's ACPI stack needs updating.)
Thanks,
John
