I meant "... two models [of HP laptops] using this southbridge..." of course. :)
Now I did a search of the Internet and have become puzzled. Apparently there *are* other devices using this DSDT. See for example a thread at: "http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=359559" where an owner of an HP Compaq 6715s has some other problems with a DSDT which coincidentally is the very same HP/SB400/10000 (though built with a different ASL compiler, hmm...).
Matthew, where did you get these DMI IDs from? -- I cannot see them being reported in any bootstrap log.
