Hi Alexandre,

I've got exactly the same model (since 5 days ago). On mine, it shows 7 
warnings but no errors. Nevertheless, it cannot reboot or shutdown under 
FreeBSD (which sadly means I'll have to switch to Linux, unless I find 
out that FreeBSD 6.2-BETA3 makes things work).

I can send you acpidump's output from my machine if you wish.

Later,
Andrew
