The warnings are nothing to worry about; the methods defined by the SMBus Control Method Interface have reserved names, in that they begin with underscores, and that causes the compiler to whine a little. The i2c device stuff doesn't work simultaneously because the original SMBus controller section in the DSDT has been commented out. I figured that there wouldn't be much use for it, but you can try uncommenting it in the source code and recompiling. Look for the device named "SMBS". > > Good job, Richard! Glad it works! I'm still trying to get the alarm polling working properly, this looks on the whole to be a good solution. cheers, Rich ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
