 Can you send me your whole asl, I'm curious how close it is to mine.

Hrm, a bit later than anticipated, got ill after skipping too many nights,
had to take a break :-)

However, with the following patch, fdc, sio, and ppc attach under acpi
instead of isa again!

With a stock kernel and patched dsdt I have a fully working system again.
All Dell laptop users with problems might want to give this a look as at
least Stijn's Inspirion 8500 has exactly the same dsdt as mine (Latitude
C640).

ps. Bob, sorry for arguing that it might be acpica, I come from a world
where I assume hardware is not the first thing to look at when things
break ...

Great work! I'm off to test this right now!

 With a stock kernel and patched dsdt I have a fully working system again.
 All Dell laptop users with problems might want to give this a look as at
 least Stijn's Inspirion 8500 has exactly the same dsdt as mine (Latitude
 C640).

It's in Inspiron 4150 FWIW, but there is enough reason to believe that
most Dell laptops use the same code, yes.

I'll report back ASAP.

Success on my Inspiron 4150. After unsuccesfully trying to apply the patch
to the asl dumped by acpidump I got to my senses and tried to apply it to
the iasl disassembled version. That worked in one shot.

Thanks for all the hard work, Mark!
