Posting the acpidump(8) output would be a good start. (Unfortunately, we
probably need the so-called MADT table, which is neither possible with
acpidump(8) in 5.x nor with acpidump(8) in pkgsrc/sysutils/acpidump.  So
you'd need to boot to an alternative operating system to do that.)

But compiling a kernel with ACPI_MADT_DEBUG defined and posting the output
will likely do as well.
