I saw this acpidump command (dont know anything about ACPI)  and
thought I would run it on my Asus x83v laptop
this notebook runs the following:

MiniBSD# uname -a
FreeBSD MiniBSD.PuffyBSD.Com 8.0-STABLE FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #2: Thu Dec
24 21:13:20 CST 2009
sfourman@MiniBSD.PuffyBSD.Com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64


here is the output of `acpidump -dt | gzip -c9 >asus_x83v.asl.gz

http://www.puffybsd.com/asus_x83v.asl.gz

hopefully this will help FreeBSD devlopers better support Asus Laptops

I am very willing to help devlopers and root on this notebook is
available from public ssh .. just ask
