I wrote S. about this to modify the DSDT section on the web-page with instructions how to fix this. I proposed the following: Check the number following the keyword "SystemMemory", some are close to the total memory the DSDT is made for. Just fix it such that the difference from your total amount of memory remains the same. Maybe somebody can tell whether this is correct. The problem is that for some DSDTs this obvious when the number is close to the total memory as stated above. Some other have a relatively small address, so I suppose that is counted from the bottom and does not have to be modified. Is this right? thanks, hajo ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
