	It works now, someone complained about ACPI not working correctly
with Linux on the Dell Support Forums and then Dell said they don't
support Linux so I was going to put your URL that actually tells exactly
what is broken with ACPI...  The URL for the thread is:

http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=insp_bios&message.id=19110

	I think that the Dell FreeBSD users all should post something over
there so that they'll fix the problem.
