I'm all for this if this is possible. acpi-support has always meant to be
a temporary set of hacks to make things work.

Given that it's planned for next LTS release of Ubuntu it should be
compatible with the Lenny schedule. Tim, what do you think of the
principle ? Would you be ready to prepare such replacements package
in experimental (either working directly with Ubuntu or reintegrating their work
once they did it) ?
