So now that I can boot the (tweaked) OpenBSD kernel: http://stare.cz/dmesg/asus-J1800IC-acpidump.tar.gz While disassembling DSDT, iasl complained: Loading Acpi table from file asus-J1800IC.DSDT.2 - Length 00034068 (008514) ACPI: DSDT 0x00000000 008514 (v02 ALASKA A M I 01072009 INTL 20120913) Acpi table [DSDT] successfully installed and loaded Pass 1 parse of [DSDT] Pass 2 parse of [DSDT] Parsing Deferred Opcodes (Methods/Buffers/Packages/Regions) Parsing completed Found 1 external control methods, reparsing with new information Pass 1 parse of [DSDT] Pass 2 parse of [DSDT] Parsing Deferred Opcodes (Methods/Buffers/Packages/Regions) Parsing completed Disassembly completed ASL Output: asus-J1800IC.DSDT.dsl - 353462 bytes iASL Warning: There were 1 external control methods found during disassembly, but additional ACPI tables to resolve these externals were not specified. The resulting disassembler output file may not compile because the disassembler did not know how many arguments to assign to these methods. To specify the tables needed to resolve external control method references, the -e option can be used to specify the filenames. Example iASL invocations: iasl -e ssdt1.aml ssdt2.aml ssdt3.aml -d dsdt.aml iasl -e dsdt.aml ssdt2.aml -d ssdt1.aml iasl -e ssdt*.aml -d dsdt.aml In addition, the -fe option can be used to specify a file containing control method external declarations with the associated method argument counts. Each line of the file must be of the form: External (<method pathname>, MethodObj, <argument count>) Invocation: iasl -fe refs.txt -d dsdt.aml
