ahh... o.k. so I just have to add
#(then a comment number) i.g.
#7 at the end of the bug URL.

make sense...

off topic of this bug, I've another
issue over here with the iMac9,1
(that I've been slowly working on)

basically long story short there is
no entry for the AC adapter in it's
dsdt(ACPI0003)
ac.c:
static const struct acpi_device_id ac_device_ids[] = {
          {"ACPI0003", 0},
          {"", 0},
  };

causing no entries in /proc/acpi/*
and /sys/class/power_supply

This doesn't seem to be a big issue
it's just one machine defaults to ac
and then another machine defaults to battery
(keep in mind both machines are iMac9,1's
just different gpu's).

is there some boot param to tell the kernel
to simply go to ac?
