acpi.out.zip I can run esif_ufd AOK. I thought that meant that there tables were available. Is there a list of supported hardware or is this a fault.

Please attach acpi.out.

theen, There is no DPTF tables. So even Windows can't use DPTF. jock0, There are no tables which Linux can decode.

If you google, there are some articles where Lenovo will address the thermal/power related issue in the BIOS. So you may be covered, but I can't confirm.

Thank you for confirming.

Can I suggest including in the readme details of what the tables look like so users can check the output themselves.

There is no easy way to document this.
