ACPI Status

ACPI Status

[Dave Vehrs]

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,

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.

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The most things on http://acpi.sourceforge.net/ are outdated:-((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
