If I understand the instructions correctly, _every_ change to the BIOS settings would require me to: - boot a non-DSDT-overriding kernel - extract the (possibly modified) DSDT - repeat the patch procedure, building a new DSDT - strip the old one from my initrd, and append the new DSDT - reboot the new kernel This is quite cumbersome. Is there any insight in what changes to BIOS settings would lead to changes in the DSDT? -- Johan ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
