Patch to fix oops/kernel panic in asus_acpi
Got this from Karol Kozimor via Mail, fixes this issue.
I applied the patch to the 2.6.12.5 sources and it works for me. Boot without problems. All hotkeys are working. Thank you very much! the patch comment #1 is not in Linus' tree -- re-opening this bug. Marking this bug RESOLVED because a proposed patch to test is included. Assigning this to Karol, who I expect will be pleased that the patch seems to work. Karol, shall I merge this patch, or do you have a new drop of asus_acpi for me? Same bug with kernel 2.6.13 (original, unpatched sources from kernel.org). But this patch here works with 2.6.13 too and bug is gone. Created attachment 5982 [details]
Another take at this issue
Would you mind to see if this fixes your problem? Note: the second hunk of the
patch is just code reorder and whitespace clean-up, the actual fix is in the
first hunk.
Alternatively, acpi=strict should work without any patches.

Another take at this issue
OK, my bad, I missed the fact that acpi_gbl_enable_interpreter_slack (which is
what we're after) is set only at boot. Working that out would require either a
few changes to drivers/acpi/dispatcher/dsutils.c or exporting
acpi_gbl_enable_interpreter_slack.
