Even if the CPU and the Chipset support C80, als long as your DSDT does 
not define these states, Linux can't detect them. Extract your DSDT, 
decompile it and search it for the _CST and P_BLK structs. Then verify 
if these structs acually contain C-States (There are some latency 
restrictions for the C-States defined in the P_BLK, for more information 
see www.acpi.info). If you done this please report back.

Sorry, I am a newbie at this.

I did this: cp /proc/acpi/dsdt .; iasl -d dsdt

This yields a file called dsdt.dsl, which does not contain any string
like _CST or P_BLK. What am I doing wrong here?

Attached is the file in question.

Try #2 with gzipped output to keep the size down. Sorry for the inconvenience.
