Subject: IBM Thinkpad A31 | ACPI problems
Date: Sun, 5 Jan 2003 01:09:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200301050109.24410.dom@wahuu.at> (raw)

Dear Hubert!

According to the Linux ACPI developers the IBM Thinkpad A31 has a buggy BIOS. 
Recently I have heard/read rumors that SuSE is cooperating with IBM 
concercing the ACPI implementation of Thinkpad notebooks. There seem to be 
many Thinkpad owners having the same problem with ACPI support. 
Today I have tested your SuSE kernel (suse-2.4.19-41 [20030103]) hoping that 
ACPI might work. ;-) Could you please inform us what the status of the 
cooperation with IBM at SuSE is? Are there any efforts at IBM to fix the 
buggy BIOS or at SuSE to implement a work around for the buggy bios? Any 
information is highly appreciated!

Best Regards,
Dom
