I am very new to Linux but have found this bug to be the culpret to all my problems. I am running Ubuntu 2.6.15-26-686 on the ASUS S96J and have found that turning acpi=off worked to get my system up and running. Now to not have all my acpi turned off there is a patch that must be implemented as you have all mentioned. My drive is also on a dual boot with XP but GRUB seems to be letting me boot nicely with them both. My question is how do i implement the patch for the DSDT.aml file?
