There will be another ACPI patch at some point, actually kicking in hooks needed to handle system wakeup, but getting the PC into the RTC class framework is an important first step. Once there's a proper replacement for /proc/acpi/alarm it becomes a candidate for removal. Maybe sooner rather than later, unless some users for that old file turn up... - Dave - 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
