Subject: Re: acer-wmi is unnecessarily loaded on a Lenovo Ideapad S12
Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2011 20:49:10 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110103204910.GA4223@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)

It looks like this GUID is present in a surprisingly wide range of
devices (eg, http://pastebin.com/8BY0Dg64 from a Vaio...), which means
that it's probably not a safe assumption that reading from the EC will
give us reasonable results. Do the Acer drivers definitely do that,
rather than there being some SMI that returns the data?
