Initially when? *This* thread (#370173) is specific to Acer Aspire
5005 (despite being flooded with echo disengaged > /proc/brain
thinkpad specific nonsense), if we are going to be fussy.

them related to thinkpads) and enough 'evidence' to think the problem
(with very the same symptoms) is NOT specific to Thinkpads.
