Yes, that did the trick!

Right, the ASLs are effectively the same, with the exception
that the very changes I did in the first place now seem to be
"backed out".  Is this the supposed behaviour when the DSDT
is overridden (i.e. acpidump(8) always dumps the DSDT pro-
vided by the BIOS (or something to that effect))?
