Subject: Buggy DSDTs policy ?
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2004 14:23:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041022122326.GA69381@dspnet.fr.eu.org> (raw)
What is the policy w.r.t broken DSDTs and the ACPI subsystem?
Specifically, which of these two options is right:
1- Provide a non-buggy DSDT to the kernel
2- Make the ACPI subsystem tolerant of the bugs
The option 3, have all biosen over the world fixed is a nice fantasy,
but nothing else.
If 1, we need to put a mechanism for that in the official kernel.
If 2, I'll start working on patches to make the laptop I play with
work as-is.
So, which it is?
OG.
