Re: ibm-acpi-0.1

Hi Boris,

On a T41 it inserts in the kernel only if I replace _SB.GDCK with
_SB.PCI0.PCI1.DOCK.
If I don't, I get the following message:
insmod ./ibm_acpi.ko 
insmod: error inserting './ibm_acpi.ko': -1 No such device

and in dmesg I found:
ibm_acpi: acpi_get_handle(\_SB.GDCK) failed

At a fist glance, hot-keys work, but the Fn-F5 does not enable bluetooth
anymore.
I will get back with more feedback.

Thanks,
Paul
