I'm sure this little widget works without any problems; but what I do find interesting is to find this little warning text at the site:

Attention: ACPI Manager was designed for computer specialists only. Unskilled usage of ACPI Manager may cause malfunction of your computer.

So wondering what others experience with the ACPI Manager and the rest of the ACPI drivers and tools.

Haven't used ACPI manager but on my work laptop, an LG dual core, ACPI works in the meaning of making it possible to use dual core. On my own older laptop, Aspire Athlon 2600+, ACPI gets installed but several functions doesn't work, like uptime, battery and so on. Also USB stops working despite the /CD parameter. Generally I find it hard to configure and I will stop testing and wait to the ecs2.0 release.

Understand that there are quite a few issues to get it all to work proper and as well there has recently been som major issues with the latest chipset for AMD CPU's as well.
