However, I'm comfortable taking this risk because: 1. we've never noticed any difference with the field set. 2. there is approximately 0 chance that this vendor is writing Linux-aware EC or SMM code. 3. we want to stamp out the use of OSI(Linux), not encourage it, so erring on the conservative side is to turn it off and be quiet by default. thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Its a Phoenix BIOS btw. For the WMI: Could acer_wmi be extended for this as Alex suggested ? Another FSC model is listed in their hw-db.

One possibility is that we could add a DMI entry that automatically does acpi_osi="!Windows 2006" for you. > Sidenote: > I don't like this BIOS - there are just no features in it.

The code (that I didn't show) is littered with TRAPs... cheers, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

For me its ok to use the option. BUT if there's no better way atm then for user "Jony smith" its better to do that automagically.
