I know you posted to the amd64 list, but if you could use i386 in
the interim then there *is* a fix for the ACPI problem on HP
qorkstations there - not in 7.0 but theres a patch which makes it
work fine. Am happily using a dc5750 here in 32 bit mode
pending a fix for SMP when we can move it to 64 bit.
