Hello,
I posted right now the ACPI patch for M57SLI[1] to the list. Hopefully you can test and verify this once again.
I tried it after first undoing your previous acpi patch, but it doesn't work for me. The linux kernel freezes directly after printing the initialization message for the serial driver. So I think there is still something not right with the interrupt routing.
Enjoy it!
I enjoyed it anyway.
Ronald.

I didn't realize that there was a newer version of the mptable irq routing fix then the one I had. Now I found and used that, everything works as it should. soft power-off, powernow, nvidia xorg driver, the works! Great job.

The first thing I thought when I read this was: "He missed to apply the mptable-irq-fix patch."

Fine that you found it, and that everything works for you. Just one more question on that topic:
Which mainboard hardware revision do you use?
Ronald.

I have a V2 board. With a nvidia 8600GT VGA. And a SST25VF016B (2048 KB) spi flash soldered on the 2nd spi footprint.
I saw that the mptable fix is now committed. When will the ACPI patch be committed? Or should the other Suspend states be added...

The ACPI patch is now also signed-off, but ATM my 32bit toolchain is broken, and I wanted to test the last modifications to it before committing this patch.
To add other Suspend states could be quite hard, as the mcp55 is not well documented, and I hadn't looked into that exactly. For the first step the patch will be committed (nearly) as it was. In the mean-time I just added some small modifications on the dsdt.asl so that Windows 7 can be installed and booted flawless with coreboot and acpi support.
I'm going to commit that after testing it a final time, to see if nothing get broken with my last (small) changes. You can test this patch if you like too. It's attached.
Ronald.
Kind regards, Harald

I've tested your latest patch and I don't notice any difference. Everything still works fine. (but then again, I don't use windows)
I've seen that you put the fadt in different location, eg. not in the mainboard directory anymore, but in the southbridge directory (mcp55).
best regards, Ronald.
