Linux and ACPI on the 5600

Can ACPI be implemented/enabled on the 5600. The kernal supports it, but  does the hardware.

Be more precise - what functionality are you after?

I am looking for processor sleep modes and any ACPI compliant devices that will conserve power. I guess the question is what power management scheme is used and if the kernal is ACPI compliant, why is not leveraged.

Thanx
