Re: [PATCH] fix APM notify of apmd for on-AC/on-battery transitions

[cort@fsmlabs.com]

Thanks for the report, I'll add that to the comments for completeness.

I think this affects all Vaio laptops.  With enough reports maybe
we'll find out something different, though.

Thanks for the suggestion to move the get_event().  I'll see about moving
that (but not on a friday night).

} It looks like my Vaio will need it as well -- loading the apm module
} with debug=1 doesn't show any on/off battery events when I yank the
} power. (It does log other events, though.)

} A comment on the patch? How about pushing the specifics of the
} apm_bios_power_change_bug from check_events() down into either the
} get_event() or apm_get_event() routines? That way the specifics are
} abstracted a bit from the main event dispatch loop, and one gets to
} inherit the debug logging and whatnot.
