Does the Thinkpad 770 support ACPI? I'm running a 2.6.4 kernel. I've enabled all the ACPI 
related options in the kernel, but I'm still not getting a /proc/acpi.

I checked my kernel logs from past boots with 'cat /var/log/messages | grep -i acpi':

Apr  4 17:04:04 robin BIOS-e820: 000000000a7d0000 - 000000000a7df000 (ACPI data)
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin BIOS-e820: 000000000a7df000 - 000000000a7e0000 (ACPI NVS)
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin ACPI disabled because your bios is from 98 and too old
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin You can enable it with acpi=force
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin ACPI: Subsystem revision 20040220
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin ACPI: Interpreter disabled.
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin ACPI: ACPI tables contain no PCI IRQ routing entries
Apr  4 17:04:04 robin PCI: Invalid ACPI-PCI IRQ routing table

I've got nothing in my kernel logs since then, even though ACPI is enabled. Any ideas?
