 I removed the section above, but if fails to compile:

 root at anderstest:~# iasl anderstest.asl-fixed 

 Intel ACPI Component Architecture
 ASL Optimizing Compiler / AML Disassembler version 20041119 [Dec 31
 2005]
 Copyright (C) 2000 - 2004 Intel Corporation
 Supports ACPI Specification Revision 2.0c

 Non-ASCII character: 0xD2 at offset 0xBB
 Non-ASCII character: 0xD2 at offset 0x189
 Non-ASCII character: 0xD2 at offset 0x7B3
 3 non-ASCII characters found in input file, appears to be binary
 Error    1082 - Invalid characters found in file anderstest.asl-fixed

 In the ASL, there is 0xD2 which is Ò, used for Creator ID in the RSDT,
 FACP and SPCR sections. I changed that to just ASL like it looks like on
 my Dell laptop (Creator ID=ASL). Then I can compile. Booting with the
 custom dsdt, I get a page fault. Log attached.

 I will check to see if I can change anything useful in the BIOS
 tomorrow, but I doubt it. :-/

 Cheers,

 Anders.
