[ACPI] Help with the Compaq 1700 bug

[Felipe C. <al5...@ma...>]

Hi,

I'm pretty sure this is a very known issue, but I don't know how to fix this.
I get this when booting the kernel:

Subsystem revision 20020611
Vendor "PTLTD " System "  DSDT  " Revision 0x6040000 has a known ACPI BIOS problem.
Reason: Multiple problems. This is a non-recoverable error

So I think my bios has a bug, www.compaq.com doesn't work so I can't flash the
bios. I think got my dsdl but it doesn't compile, this is the output:

ASL Input: pacpidump/t.dsdl - 2330 lines, 88757 bytes, 1587 keywords

So, I'll attach my dsdl, might be someone can help me. It was obtained with the
modified version of acpidump for FreeBSD.
