 Hi,

Actually, acpiexec should work on Linux without any changes to source.
Besides, last version is 20050902.

Regards,
	Alex.

Subject: [ACPI] pmtools - acpiexec

Hi,

I recently played with acpiexec to debug a DSDT.

This seems to be a very useful tool to debug/execute DSDTs outside the
kernel?
Is it supposed to work?

The first Hunk of this patch makes it compile/link again.

It came out that the AcpiGbl_RootNode was not allocated.
I tried it with the second Hunk, but it seems as if this Node has
to be created in some special way, as parsing of the DSDT segfaults
when it tries to find the parent of the (global root?) node.

Thanks,

      Thomas
