Happy to hear that, but I doubt your laptop does not support ACPI. The proof is you can't read your battery power level, and that's an ACPI feature. If you could ever do that then ACPI is supported, even if the BIOS does not mention it because it just won't allow you to disable it. Laptop BI

I think the problem lies within a TSC compatibility problem with multi- core processors with independant core clocking. it seems that frequency scaling is improperly registered by the kernel, and causes bugs such as this one and bug 64325 with Konqueror.
