I'm currently struggling to get my DSDT file sorted for a retail install. After extracting the vanilla DSDT and without making any modifications I am not able to compile it. There are over 200 errors in the DSDT and as far as I can tell with my limited knowledge all the brackets are in the correct place and thats really all I can tell you. I'm pretty much stuck on this now so if anybody can offer any help, advice or a solution it would be much appreciated. I've listed the system spec below and attached the DSDT with a list of some of the issues.

Field Note #1 @milanca 2010-05-31

the attached dsdt really won't compile. something's weird here, its really strange to me that a stock dsdt has so many compiling errors. was everything ok when you decompiled original dsdt.aml ?

can you make another dsdt dump, the best way should be to do it via livecd linux version, like ubuntu?
