Several readers have sent me a link to a discussion in progress on the Ubuntu forums which outlines how hardware manufacturer Foxconn crippled Linux support on the G33M-S motherboard by breaking ACPI support.

Noodlenose notes a thread up on the Ubuntu forums, where a user is questioning the practices of hardware manufacturer Foxconn.

The user describes how his new Foxconn motherboard caused his Linux install to freeze and fire off weird kernel errors.

He disassembles the BIOS and concludes that a faulty DSDT table is responsible for the errors. Even though the user makes Foxconn aware of the problem, they refuse to correct it, as 'it doesn't support Linux' and is only 'Microsoft certified.' The user speculates darkly on Foxconn's motives.
