Hi,

I've a ComPaq n610c with FreeBSD 5.1-Current running. With the latest
bios/RomPaq i was able to install Current/5.1-Release. Previous RomPaq
was completely broken for ACPI. But now is more or less works. I have
still some problems with acpi and without acpi. With acpi i got some
warnings and short/mid freezes during boot and sysctl -A. I've already
did some digging in ACPI asl/aml code but can't do the tricks like
removing a simple * from the Name (_HID, "*PNPsomething) . Has any one
any good leads to help or docs without having to spend 2 years of
college? 

I've made a dmesg and a ACPI dump available at: 
http://www.guldan.demon.nl/dmesg_output.txt 
http://www.guldan.demon.nl/n610c_2.dsl 


Booting 5.1 Current without acpi leaves this machine totally broken
devices can't be found and drivers seem to locate the cardbus controller
multiple times. Having up to 17 cardbus adaptors reported in my
system... mmmhh Sounds cool ;-)

PS: Compaq released this week a new RomPaq for this machine F.14 A
