I have installed the new bios that came available. The bios is still reporting :

so i tried to disassemble the bios and found this code :
If (MCTH (_OS, "Linux"))
{
Store (One, Local0)
}
much in the same line as described in the article. as the solution on the page does not work for me (the generated code does not compile) I have to check out how to solve that, any pointers are appreciated.

As the original forum is of last year, and they do fix stuff for Vista relating to exactly the same stuff (so fixing for Linux should be rather trivial) It looks like they still do not take Linux any more serious than a year ago.
on iasl not working when i run `iasl -dc dsdt.dat` i get error 4068. when i try to compile a decompiled piece of code i get a lot of errors. I'll run by a iasl forum or something.
