writing your own DSDT

writing your own DSDT

[Keld Jørn Simonsen]

Hi

Does one get something out of adding code to the DSDT for ones machine,
or would the machine simply ignore it? I was thinking of adding some
methods for my sound system, and my modem. Could adding unauthorized
code damage the hardware?

Are there a better place to get advice for writing DSDT etc?
(email list/news group or a url for tutorial/manual)

best regards
keld

it depends on how and what kind of code you add. see the url below for
more pointers.
