ACPI notes


http://gaugusch.at/kernel.shtml

has a kernel patch which allows you to override the DSDT (Differentiated System Description Table) at boot time. However, this does not work perfectly on the nx6125. The nx6125 has a SSDT (Secondary System Description Table) which contains references to symbols in the DSDT. Therefore, replacing the DSDT can break things unless the symbol names match with the SSDT.

I ran into this problem when I installed a custom DSDT which was derived by patching an older version of the BIOS. I had several "ACPI Namespace" errors due to undefined references.
