Bug Description

This bug is (as usual) due to an invalid DSDT, in this case it calls some functions that do not exist, ending in _Q0E or _Q0F instead of the proper functions. I will attach a fixed DSDT (both source and compiled) to be used in /etc/initramfs-tools/DSDT.aml This is for the Darter Ultra only (and probably *some* asus z35fm models too)

The bios version 305 (well actually a previous version but 305 is latest as of this posting) from www.asus.com (for the Z35Fm) resolves this issue as well, without the need for a new DSDT, and is quite likely a more suitable choice here. Obviously getting the bios loaded can be a hassle, but actually if you can repartition and make a small FAT partition, the bios has a built-in updater utility that can find the file (no boot needed, just go into the bios!)
