Bug Description
Binary package hint: acpi-support
My N340S8 laptop has a bizarre bios which falls under the date cut-off age (despite the fact that it isn't actually as old) and thus has ACPI disabled by default. However ACPI works fine if I force it. A patch has been applied for Dapper (or Edgy, I don't remember) and it worked, somehow it disappeared for Feisty.
Unfortunately I forgot what needs to be reported, so I'll be glad if someone tells me what to do (output of which commands to detect this model).

To post a comment you must log in.
Tomasz, after booting with acpi=force, please update the report with the output of "uname -a", and please attach the output of the following commands:
sudo lspci -vv
sudo lspci -vvn
sudo dmidecode
Please be sure to use sudo, root privileges are required to obtain the necessary information. Please attach one file per command, please do not compress the output, please do not add the output in-line, and please do not attempt to email in the attachments - they have to be added to the report within Launchpad.
It would also be useful if you could create a wiki page for your laptop; please refer to [1].
Thanks!
