I would help if I could ... I have (as U know) a M2400N. I get your
DSDT.asl and I even don't succeed in compiling it, so I finally ask
you for a compiled one ... and it works better now.

I could give a small amount of donation, but I don't think we are
enough in this case for ASUS to take it into account.

May be it's better to turn to Intel rather
(http://www.petitiononline.com/xanthan/petition.html) but maybe I
don't understand the point of it !

So what can I do ?
