Bug#674243: Dell XPS 14z: Kernel crash when closing the lid

[Sylvain Archenault <sylvain.archenault@laposte.net>]

I install the latest trunk version, and I was unable to load the module 
acpiphp. I haven't looked at deeply, is it built-in? which would explain 
why I am not able to load it !!!

On my 3,6,2 I built from source, every time I try to load it I have this 
error:

[  650.277617] acpiphp: ACPI Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.5
[  650.278069] acpiphp_glue: can't evaluate _ADR (0x5)

Which I also found in mike dmesg log.

So I'm thinking that maybe since 3.6, there is a "fix" that prevents the 
module from being loaded if it can't. I found this:
