If "acpi_osi=Linux" works better, please notify [email protected]

I have aspi_osi=Linux tried and thinks look better this way. I saw this message in the /var/log/messages.

My operating system : Ubuntu 8.10

[    0.496839] ACPI: DMI System Vendor: Dell Inc.
[    0.496840] ACPI: DMI Product Name: Inspiron 1721

With kind regards,

Exactly how do things look better with acpi_osi=Linux?

Please open a bugzilla.kernel.org entry against ACPI, assign it to [email protected], and attach the full dmesg with and without acpi_osi=Linux, plus (just one copy) of the ouput from acpidump.

thanks,
