It looks like you have DMI enabled.  Is that from SeaBIOS?  I turned it
in
config.h since it looks emulator specific.  Kevin or Rudolf, do you use
it
when you boot XP?
[Jason, Wang] I really have no idea about DMI, and I also checked the
SeaBIOS configuration file and gained nothing. Watson, what is the path
of the file"config.h"?

I've been muddling through.  I found that the history command has been
useful to save some typing and frustration when I have typing errors.

The other commands I've used:

resources
execute
namespace
help

It turns out that you can't load multiple tables into acpiexec, which
can be
a pain.  I patched the source and replaced one table, then I can load
the
other.

[Jason, Wang] how did you do that? Now I really need some tools to debug
the acpi.
