Well, I own a M6727NEUH and I never had any problem with the DSDT - so why suddenly should there a problem? The problem appeared with the 2.6.20-kernels when something had changed in the acpi-handling. But I will give the linux acpi mailing list a try. >> And the WLAN-led still shows up at boot.

Now it appears even if the WLAN is down. And indeed it's a poor solution when I have to fix something by hand that once worked automatically. acpid and acpi-support are both installed, but didn't help. What I'm looking for is this "asus_acpid" the manual is talking about. I can't get it with Aptitude and as far as I can see, it's not included in the kernel-module asus-laptop. Sorry, but the new acpi-policy appears to me not as one but two or three steps back.
