Outstanding. I'll script it into changing them automatically at startup. Pavel also wrote the following: > I believe user should be clever enough to set polling rate manually. I wouldn't leave anything to the user unless it's extremely clear cut, particularly with the movement towards a more Windows-like Linux (see Bluecurve) that tries to soften the reality of Linux not being that friendly to the average schmuck. -----Original Message----- From: Dominik Brodowski [mailto:linux-JhLEnvuH02M@public.gmane.org] Sent: Sunday, 3 November 2002 4:15 PM To: Edmund Rhudy Cc: 'Pavel Machek'; acpi-devel-5NWGOfrQmneRv+LV9MX5uipxlwaOVQ5f@public.gmane.org Subject: Re: [ACPI] Changing temperature trip points Hi, On Sun, Nov 03, 2002 at 04:08:43PM -0500, Edmund Rhudy wrote: > Unfortunately not, because I'm not a programmer of any sort.

Actually, I only wanted to know whether you set a "polling frequency" (e.g. echo 1 > polling_frequency after setting these temperature trip points.
