Does ACPI driver work on your computer / laptop?  

Post reports via web-form -- http://ecomstation.ru/support.php

The results are published here:
http://ecomstation.ru/projects/acpitools/?action=hardware


1) From:
* Your name, email
* SHOW your name / or HIDE it
* email is always hidden and not recorded for mailing lists
* ACPI version: 3.21, 3.22. Old versions are not supported  


2)
If it works fine then post positive short report:
1 or 2 lines of text:
%version% / %model of computer% / %boot with ACPI% / %works with ACPI%  

example:
ACPI 3.22.x / Thinkpad T61 / boots fine / works fine, suspend/resume - no, ..  


3) If computer hangs with ACPI driver.
and boots fine without ACPI.
ACPI 3.22.x / Thinkpad T430 / doesn't boot / none  


What is the reason to collect this short reports?
* We don't have information about current level of ACPI support.
it works fine for many computers but we don't see negative reports.  

* The users are lazy to post detailed reports.
To attract attention of users and make them share full reports
it's necessary make many efforts, organize the process.
