Again thanks for your work and dedication on this annoying issue. As I've said before... | So it looks like the best way to move forward at the moment is: | | 1) Get a copy of your DSDT | 2) Send it to me, with the *full* make/model of your machine | 3) I'll add in the CM definitions to your DSDT | 4) I'll post the modified DSDT on my website. | 5) Download the modified DSDT, and install it following the instruction= s | at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=3D122145 (see section 9; | although in Gentoo forums, these instructions should work on most syste= ms). Do you really think this is as simple as running a perl script? Ok, these= are debug builds, but will you produce DSDTs for every laptop model with a smartbattery someone owns and asks you to patch their DSDT like in an ass= embly line? While it's definately the most elegant, I'm sorry, but I still don't see = future for this method. regards, pedro venda. - -- Pedro Jo=E3o Lopes Venda email: pjvenda-pQd4kjVL+REh2FBCd0jGRA@public.gmane.org http://arrakis.dhis.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB/Pn/eRy7HWZxjWERAh5hAKDJMeIgxIVpxu/fJ8ukHRodVBVSaQCgzr8a XWYV49SFdSVqtVE+SF+V4cQ=3D =3DoOcm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
