"ACPI (short for "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface") is a standard that defines power and configuration management interfaces between an operating system and Hardware. It is meant to supersede the older APM standard (for power management) and provide a generic interface for recognition and configuration of hardware devices."

Available to those with access (via Software Subscription Services) to the eComStation BetaZone: http://betazone.ecomstation.com

The ACPI beta drivers have been updated on the eComStation BetaZone:
