Argh. Argh indeed, probably it is screwing up when looking for an ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE. Please change "BCLL" to "_BCL", and ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE to ACPI_TYPE_METHOD. Does that make the driver work? I don't want to really use ACPI_TYPE_METHOD and _BCL, that's something Lenovo might decide to add to the T60 and other Lenovo thinkpads with 8 levels for some reason, to support Vista. If I have to use _BCL, I will need to actually call it, and parse its results... which is more code to write, test, and (if it doesn't work at first), waste a lot of time into debugging. I will see if I can find a way to test with ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE looking for some crap in the T43 DSDT :( I tested with ACPI_TYPE_METHOD. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
