Is there any reason for the whole detection to not happen exactly once? After all, ACPI cannot change after boot, can it? Hmm ... actually DSDT can be loaded from initrd, so it can change ... but in this case we actually are just interested in DMI matching which says whether vendor driver is preferred or not. What would be the the best place to call it from? -andrey --nextPart12516688.zlN7n4Zbhr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkkVmjwACgkQR6LMutpd94yojACgwipiClbM9G9nJL8MGemWo5iI QbIAoJhgzjl5c5ytA6pRoJvj1jhRM/Qt =fNss -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart12516688.zlN7n4Zbhr--
