Phoenix tool to disassemble the dsdt

Phoenix tool to disassemble the dsdt

[Heiko Ettelbrück]

Hi,

on Intel's ACPI website (in the FAQ section) there is a tool mentioned
which is able to disassemble the dsdt: ad.exe from Phoenix (a DOS tool).

Yesterday I tried to get that tool using the appropriate link to
Phoenix' website, but the link seems to be broken. Does anyone of you
have some information about how to get the tool by now?

According to my understanding of the ACPI FAQ entry at Intel's site, the
tool seems to be freely available. Did I get that right? Or has Phoenix
altered the license after that FAQ entry had been published?

Thanks!
Heiko

It just doesn't seem to be available any more.  But recent versions of
Intel's iasl can disassemble (very well).
