Ahh, but its set to 'y', meaning its built in. And I'm not sure if its heart can be made modular. I haven't used it in a while due to its inability to cope with, and maintain, ntp protocol accurate timekeeping as the machine drifts so far and fast that ntp cannot cope and the only way to keep accurate time is to crash reset it with ntpdate at short enough intervals. Is there a hard requirement to use acpi if one is dealing with audio production? I haven't had any problems running an old version of audacity here for what little tinkering I might want to do.
