acpidump for this tablet

My Atom tablet PC reports ludicrous values for
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/current_now on AC power (65336000 µA, if I recall
the number correctly). This leads to gnome-power-manager claiming that the
machine has only 3 minutes of power left when first unplugged.

Commenting out 'dmi_name_in_vendors("Acer") &&' in acpi_battery_quirks() in
drivers/acpi/battery.c to force the quirk results in more sane current_now
values (around 200000) when on AC.

dmidecode and acpidump attached.
