I cvsup'd from 5.0-R to HEAD and enabled ACPI to see if anything had changed in the past 6 months. Indeed, things have, and a few workarounds I had implemented before were no longer needed.
However, I still got a host of errors from ACPI upon boot, and some hacks to device.hints were still neccessary to keep my laptop functional through a boot. Attached are my device.hints file and a copy of the dmesg. In particular, the things that bother me are: 1) All of the "Method execution failed" errors 2) The fact that I have to have a device.hints entry in order to see console message upon boot. (Without this, my system boots up silently and after about 30 seconds, displays the familiar login prompt.) -- Matt Emmerton
