I have a Samsung P10 and found at behnel.de & SF-ACPI page some=20 instructions to patch the DSDT table under Suse 9.1pro. I followed those=20 as close as I can and I guess ACPI works somehow. Well, wakeup after=20 sleep and CPU-throttling doesn't work though :( Now to my dismay the battery stopped charging at all, it is completely=20 empty. No matter what I do, it doesn't get charged. The battery is about=20 2 yrs old but was pretty OK before, i.e. lasted about 1.5 hrs unplugged.=20 Is it possible for DSDT patches to blow up the battery & charging units=20 or you think the battery's (physically) died all of a sudden?
