We have added an OSL interface, "AcpiOsTableOverride", for exactly this
purpose.  In the OSL code for the ACPI CA core, the host OS can supply a
replacement ACPI table for each and every table that is loaded from the
BIOS.  ACPI CA then uses this replacement table instead.  (i.e.,
AcpiOsTableOverride(&TableHeader) is called from the ACPI CA core before
actually using a BIOS table.)  The first rev of this support only allowed an
overrided of the DSDT.  The latest version will allow override of any ACPI
table.

Hi there,

I wonder if we can do what iwasaki suggested long time ago for "buggy" 
BIOSes.

"# Actually, you can create ACPI BIOS data, called DSDT, from submitted

# dumpfile with Intel ASL compiler (iasl) in ports/devel/acpitools/
# and load your customized DATA in loader overriding BIOS."

Is this an option?

I have a Sony r505 TEK. Is there a way to have suspend / resume / power off
functionality with the above procedure?

Is there anything I can do to make the acpi-code to work with this machine?

TIA.
