In the past all we had to go on was the memory of a machine that died several years ago. But if you've got a live failure, that is really valuable. Please go here http://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=3DACPI and submit a new sighting vs. Power-Thermal and attach the output from acpidump, cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/* and assign it to len.brown@intel.com thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" i= n the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
