                elem = &o->Package.Elements[i];

# dmesg | tail
acpi_aiboost0: <ASUStek AIBOOSTER> on acpi0

Well it fails trying to evaluate TSIF, with elem->Type = ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE.

The ASL is in http://gid0.free.fr/ASUS-P5Q3_Deluxe_WiFi.asl

Can I provide something else ? (I'm not an expert...)
