ACPI (kernel & BIOS issues)

There're some problems with ACPI due to both issues with the BIOS, and some lack of kernel support.

Motherboard temperature always reported as 26.8°C

See this kernel bug.

Processors' temperature not reported

The kernel doesn't currently have full support for getting core temperature from Atom processors. A patch is provided at this kernel bug that adds Atom support to the coretemp module.

kacpid and kacpi_notify eat CPU cycles when lid is closed

There's a modified DSDT that fixes this problem at this kernel bug.
