Yeah, try posting responses to silencer on one of his threads. I posted the link before on http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=85344, but he's posted the same on insanely at: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...05&pid=1432200

He's pretty helpful, and I think he wants his guide to be a little more generic than just oriented to thinkpads. (And that's the real problem with all our posts-- they tend to be fairly specific to our hardware. That's why any attempts like prasys's, silencer's, etc that try to generically educate are great.

My advice is that if you do figure things out, document it for yourself, and then take a look at what's published and see if you can do better (or at least help edit a noob-friendly guide) that explains and documents SSDT/C-States for generic hardware. Most of us stop (and I am just as guilty) when we get something working. But we need to pass on the knowledge. (I wish we had better community-editable Wikis-- the incessant posts, many full of outdated, inaccurate and just plain wrong information make finding what you need very difficult and time-consuming).

Good luck.
