[tlinux-users:08688] Re: Ubuntu Gutsy on Satellite P100

Hi,

thanks for the hints with acpi_osi, I googled a bit around this issue and keep 
the results on the launchpad site (no luck so far)

@ Mark: If everything worked for you by default in Feisty (esp. sound) than 
there should be no concern upgrading to Gutsy. Maybe you should download and 
test the gutsy live cd before upgrading your running system, just to be shure 
(50 cent for a blank CD vs. hours of frustration and reinstalling). If you 
encounter any problems please have a look at ubuntuforms.org - you're likely 
not the first, and normally you'll find a step-by-step solution (or other 
frustrated owners of your laptop model ;-)

oh, and DSDT (from wikipedia, but I think you don't need to know this until 
you have to fix it):

DSDT stands for Differentiated System Description Table. It is a part of the 
ACPI specification and it supplies configuration information about a base 
system.
The DSDT comprises a system description table header, followed by a definition 
block. The definition block is encoded using ACPI Machine Language (AML), and 
unlike other definition blocks on the system, the DSDT definition block can 
not be unloaded since it provides the basic ACPI namespace scope that all 
other dynamic definition blocks can later add onto.
