Thanks for the info. Just a couple questions:

- Is there any pointer to a patch that can be applied to current stable
 (2.6.27.6) ?
- I have tried to load acpiphp on the aspire and it says it has
  'No such device'. Does the patch include something to make it load and
  recognize the Aspire's PCI ? Is this module independent or do I need
  also pciephp or shpchp ?

TIA
