    Out of curiosity, what is the motivation for running without acpi?
    It costs a lot to diverge from the mainstream in areas like that,
    so there must be a big payoff. But maybe if OLPC depends on acpi
    being smarter about power or code size or whatever, those improvements
    could be made and everybody would benefit.
