Subject: Patching 2.6.9 for custom DSDT
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2004 11:07:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8d158e1f041022020763faf71a@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Good morning all!

I'd like to try the custom Acer Aspire 1703 DSDT found on the acpi.sf.net site.

in drivers/acpi/osl.c I see the folloiwing

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT
#include CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
#endif


Does this mean I can add the following to the top of the c file?

#define CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE "/path/to/dsdt.file"
#define CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT

Or do I need the kernel patch mentioned on
http://acpi.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/HowToOverrideTable

In the later case I have a problem since I get the following error
when applying the patch:
juliana:/usr/src/linux-2.6.9# patch -p1 -i ../osl.diff
patching file drivers/acpi/osl.c
patch: **** malformed patch at line 21: }


Thanks in advance for the replies :D

Patrick
