Also, if you want to work on ACPI stuff, read the relevant
documentation. Some good stuff is:
https://ols2006.108.redhat.com/2007/Reprints/brown_1-Reprint.pdf
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/acpi-debug.html
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/acpi-overview.html
http://www.usenix.org/events/usenix02/tech/freenix/full_papers/watanabe/watanabe_html/index.html

And, of course, the ACPI mother ship at http://www.acpi.info.
