The fixed DSDT only fixes the battery issue (which is cosmetic IMO).
S1 state still does not power-off the display, and S3/S4 states still reboot. 
I see now that the attachment with the IASL dump was stripped by the mailing 
list. Is there anybody who still wants that?

I kept the Dell partition intact. Or does it need special formatting?

Hmm, since I have 512 and might upgrade to 1G of memory, I guess I don't need 
it either :). But it should error out and resume normal powerstate if for 
whatever reason suspension does not work. It should not reboot.
