I don't find thermal information under XP also but in my | ignorance I thought this should exist. | | My first attempt was to dissassemble, correct and override the DSDT but | the single bug found and corrected (a common ByteAccess type) didn't | change anything. the hardware/software acpi implementation on your laptop is independent of the platform, whether it is centrino or other. after inspection of your dsdt i didn't find references to any thermal zones. for example, page 287 of the acpi specificatoin 2.0c states that every thermal zone MUST have a _TMP object. there is no _TMP object on your dsdt, so i deduct one of two things: 1. your acpi code is not compliant with the standard or 2. you really don't have thermal zones. since there are no _CRT, _HOT, _ALx, _PSL, _PSV, _SCP, _TMP, _TZD, _TZP and unless there is/are other place/places where thermal zones are defined, i conclude that you don't have thermal zones defined. maybe someone else could confirm this... is that odd? i don't know... i am just learning ACPI now, so i don't have the experience. cumprimentos, pedro venda. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBa990eRy7HWZxjWERAgRhAKDZrBvLhGiHsdlNtlFWnCe6EWxZCACdH2Un Av0ShkaLEGUBcSdoh5Yk2U8= =Ctpb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
