Oops, web content a little stale...

Try checking out the sf.net acpi project page - sf.net/projects/acpi. You
can d/l releases there and each release has a changelog.

As to development status:

Everything is code complete (more or less) EXCEPT:

- S3/S4 support
- userspace library
- using ACPI for device PnP and resource determination

If you're interested with following ACPI progress, I'd recommend subscribing
to the acpi-devel mailing list.

hehe.  and, more importantly, there's no link from
http://acpi.sourceforge.net/devel/ to sf.net/projects/acpi.

One thing I'm not clear about is status of support for ACPI 2.0.
The FAQ on intel's website claims support for ACPI 1.0b only with 2.0
"in development", but it seems rather out of date.

ACPI Status

[Marc Giger]

Hi!

What is the current status of acpi in 2.4 / 2.5 kernels???

The most things on http://acpi.sourceforge.net/ are outdated:-((
To acpi developers: Is it possible to make a Changelog like Linus, Alan and Marcello and Co does??
And it would be nice, if there were a document which describes the current development status..(what is already implemented and what not)

My vaio (GR-114EK) has a lot of problems without acpi...

What i would know is:

standby supported?
acpi irq routing / sharing supported?
and other cool things that we can do with acpi supported?

Thanks

greets

Hello,

Quick question, does anyone know where I can find out more about the status
of ACPI development in the kernel?  Is there a seperate mailing list?

Thanks,
