sergiom99,

Arch Linux does NOT have custom DSDT support, because the kernel itself
dropped support for the patch upstream as it was very 'hackish', and
breaks every two releases or something, and as a result Arch Linux
dropped support for it as well. So, that means that Ubuntu and Arch
Linux and most other distros will not have custom DSDT support , unless
the explicitly add it themselves (you mentioned OpenSUSE did....)

I read that the kernel developers would much rather have people submit
kernel.org bug reports saying that their DSDT is faulty and have
fixes/workarounds for buggy DSDTs rather then have support for actually
loading custom DSDT files, as that way, the fix effects a wider number
of people, rather then the very small number who are even aware of the
whole 'buddy DSDT ' problem.
