ACPI hang

In Alan's TODO list, I noticed

  ACPI hangs on boot for some systems

Can anyone that is experiencing this problem
please let me know? The fastest route to a
fix would be to grab and build the acpitools
from

  http://phobos.fs.tum.de/acpi/acpitools-111899.tar.gz

and then mail me the output of "./acpidmp"
(No, obviously ACPI support doesn't need to be
in the kernel for acpidmp to work, but it
does need to be run as root)

I can't guarantee a fix if the problem is
hardware/BIOS but I can, at the very least, disable
ACPI on systems that are having problems.

Thank you,
Andy
