That doesn't sound especially auspicious. :-}

OK; they're in http://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/debug; I've
(finally!) enabled "indexing" on that directory, so folks can see what's
available.

In addition to the output from acpidump, I've provided a copy of the
kernel config file (LAPTOP_30W).  The acpidump output may be accessed
either as "david.*" (per above) or "i5000e.*" -- they're hard links.

Regarding acpidump:  when I tried running it under (today's) -STABLE, it
whined about the -t and -d flags, so I booted up today's -CURRENT, but
given my experience this morning, I kept it in single-user mode, which
seems to have worked OK.  Running the same acpidump binary (which had
been built under -STABLE), the -t and -d flags were accepted.

I also have available the output from acpidump from 05 Oct 2002 (on the
same machine, but evidently with an earlier version of acpidump).  If
that's wanted, please let me know.

Thanks,
david
