The issues in my original mail still aren't solved, so feel free, but I've
since started working on a driver for the 'extra' things my laptop implements
through ACPI (mail led, wifi led, hot keys,...).

Currently, I've just put my code under sys/dev/acpica and hooked it up in the
Makefile in sys/modules/acpi.  That works fine, but it makes the acpi module
somewhat larger for everyone, not just Asus-owners.  I would therefore like to
turn it into a loadable module in its own right, but I haven't been able to
find any documentation on loading modules depending on ACPI.  Should this
'Just Work' [tm], or are there any problems I'm likely to run into?  Pointers
would be helpful :-)

Cheers,

 - Philip
