However, if the USER re-builds their firmware, with Intel's compiler (or any other, for that matter), their system can not be supported by the system vendor, or any Linux vendor either. cheers, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
