In order to support your laptop, we will often ask you your "DSDT":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSDT#Firmware_Interface .

If you have the acpidump program installed (or if you can install it)
6 1 Corentin Chary
<pre>
7 1 Corentin Chary
acpidump -o acpi
8 1 Corentin Chary
gzip acpi
9 1 Corentin Chary

If you don't have acpidump, using /proc/acpi/dsdt will be okay, just do that:

<pre>
13 1 Corentin Chary
cat /proc/acpi/dsdt  > dsdt
14 1 Corentin Chary
gzip dsdt
