Hi Adam,

we're all well aware of the deficits of the current interface, but for now
that's all we have, and due to lead times in implementing bioses it will
be all we have for quite a while.

We're all eagerly looking forward to better interfaces and bioses that will
support them.

But for now evryone would love to just be able to use existing systems with
an out of the box Linux kernel.
