    Received 9.0 on wednesday installed on the laptop last night with one
    glitch. If I have ACPI turned on and try and configure the sound the
    machine locks up instantly when starting the sound. And any reboots
    fail. If I turn off ACPI the sound gets installed and works. In order to
    use ACPI I need to boot with ACPI turned off and remove the sound card
    from the configuration first and then boot with ACPI.
