I realized now that I may need to patch my DSDT and found out that: - I cannot find any web-page with a list of known/buggy/patched systems, where we could share knowledge on a *per system* basis. I can only lurk the list for previous discussions etc. Never mind about my own system, this should apply to all.. I propose that we construct a table like: (example) System kernel/ACPI State More ------------------------------------------------ HP Xe3GC all DSDT Patch with the patch 2.4.20/20020918 tested-OK No suspend 2.5.29-/- buggy No sleep resume, hang on kbd 2.5.33+/20021002 unknown Sleep fixed, rest? Asus M2000E 2.5.40 bug hangs.. (some_name-cx69T0KZIJYAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org) Foobar(TM) all horrible Don't use! --------------------- ... and put it in an official page, where all can see it. I believe that DSDT's need only be fixed once, so that would be a useful place to put them in. We could all contribute there, by treating the table as a project. Each time we mention sth useful in the list, we could make sure it is transferred there. Regards P.
