Using Tim Gardner's 2.6.24-21.39 kernel, the "ACPI: Failed To Attach
Device Data" errors, and all of the "Quirk" entries are gone from the
kernel log.
Using this kernel + Foxconn's BIOS fix or Matthew Garrett's workaround
patch, the only part of this bug that survives seems to be the no sound
afte
I didn't see Matthew Garrett attach this anywhere, but I snuck over to
his blog and swiped it from:
http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/tmp/foxconn.diff
It probably would be easier to patch the kernel since this has grown way
past the scope of a few dodgy motherboards.
I'd still say patching the BIOS
I see that Matthew Garrett has released a fix in Fedora Rawhide and sent
it upstream.
Since this is a small patch with what looks like a very low risk of
regressions, fixing a severe problem..When can it be applied to
Ubuntu Hardy and Intrepid Development?

I would tell them:
This has been verified by Foxconn and AMI as a defective BIOS.
When an upgrade is available, I would appreciate you please posting it
so that your customers can benefit.

It is the BIOS that is defective, not the chipset.
American Megatrends (AMI) shipped the defective BIOS, if yours is an
Award BIOS, this is not an issue.

not the checksum"

Your board, and this fellows, also appear to have been made by Foxconn,
and also use basically the same Foxconn-customized AMI (American
Megatrends) BIOS.

Apparently Foxconn is working on a patch, nothing like leaning on them

I'd suggest not giving out your email to people you think may spam you,
at this point it's probably too late and you'll need a new email

Be more careful next time, I'd use a disposable email service to sign up
for crap that is going to spam you.
In any event, this is not an Ubuntu bug.
I can confirm that this happens, it is extremely annoying.
